Help[Opinions] Re: Remiel.
in reply to a message by Link
I like this name very much. It just sound so cool, you know? It's definitely different, but very tasteful and dignified. And the -iel ending is growing on me for male names; Jeremiel is another one that I like. Then again I also like Jeremiah and Jeremias, so it's kind of follows suit with another line of my naming tastes.
If it comes down to nicknames, too, I like the potentials for Remiel--Remy or Remi are all that come to mind--a lot more than I like Gabe. Not that nicknames are an all-important issue, but it can be worth considering.
What saves it from being way religious rather than having a regular mild religious connotation to me is that I'd never even heard it before I started posting on this site. The whole "names of the seven archangels" is just something I'd never come across before. And I agree--it's no more religious than Gabriel. Even less so, if you really wanted to get into that issue, because Gabriel is such a biblical heavyweight as far as all the message-bringing he's associated with.
One of my guilty pleasure names, I might add, is Arcangelo. :-)
