Gabriel is a given name derived from the Hebrew name Gaḇrīʾēl (גַבְרִיאֵל) meaning "God is my strength". The name was popularized by the association with the angel Gabriel. In some rare cases it can be written as Gabryel.
The equivalent Slavic name is Gavrilo, the second of the seven archangels who conveyed God's messages to mortals.[1]
