Origin, Meaning, and History of Anela
Anela is a beautiful feminine given name of Greek and Hawaiian origin, which may hold multiple meanings such as ‘messenger,’ ‘messenger of God,’ and ‘angel’ from the Latin ‘angelus’ or the Greek ‘ángelos.’ It is a variant of the popular name Angela which means ‘messenger of God’ or ‘angel.’
Anela is predominantly seen as a variation of the name Angela which came into use as a given name in the 18th century. It exists in several languages with slight variations such as Angelina in Italian, Anzhela in Russian, Anděla in Czech, Angeline in French, Engel in German and Angyalka in Hungarian. The name Angela comes from Angel which in turn comes from the Latin masculine name Angelus. This masculine version has not been popular and it is the feminine versions that are more common. Anda, Anielka, Angjelko, Anhelina, Lina, Andela, Aingeal, Angeliki, and Ange are some other diminutives of the name.
Anela is also considered an elaboration of the short and sweet name Ana, which is a form of the name Anna. The spelling Hannah instead of Anna is used in many later translations of the Old Testament, including the English version. The name shows up in the New Testament for a prophetess who regarded Jesus as the Messiah.
Anna was a well-known name in the Byzantine Empire from the beginning, and during the Middle Ages, it became widely known among Western Christians due to the veneration of Saint Anna, also known as Saint Anne in English. The name was traditionally assigned to the Virgin Mary’s mother. Since the late Middle Ages, this Latin form has been used in England along with the vernacular forms Ann and Anne. Anna has been the most common spelling in all English-speaking countries since the 1970s, but the biblical form Hannah is now more popular than all three.
The phonetic spelling of the name Anela is aa-NEH-Laa. This unique three-syllable name has many variations across different cultures, including Analia, Analee, Angela, Adala, Enola, Onella, Winola, Anelie, Adell, Alena, Amel, Amelda, Ana, Anica, Ania, Anett, Anetta, Arena, Arela, Nela, Lela, and Annelie.
