I love Angela! It sounds simple and looks good. On the other hand, Aniela sounds incomplete to me. I prefer Daniela to Aniela.Middle names for Angela:

Aniela is weird. It sounds like the word “anal” and I had to read its page to figure out how to pronounce it. Unless you live in Poland don’t use it.
Angela, although boring and kind of dated, is better. Angelina or Angelica are far better names.

I quite like Angela, but not enough to use it myself. I much prefer it to Angelique, Angelina etc. Aniela is no doubt fine in its own habitat, but it's not particularly attractive and would cause pronunciation problems in places without a Polish community.

NAF of either, Angela is better though because it doesn’t sound like “anal”. A better option would be Angelica or Angelina or even Ariella.

I've never liked Angela - it sounds too dated to me. I hadn't heard of Aniela until now but I much prefer it. It eliminates the 'j' sound that I find unpleasant in Angela and seems younger and fresher. Anielka is an adorable diminutive. I'd probably pair Aniela with another Polish name...Aniela Emilia
Aniela Kamila
Aniela Milena
Aniela Wioleta
Aniela Zofia...and Angela with something younger and livelier to cheer it up.Angela Maisie
