About Ezrael
Ezrael is a faux Biblical name, combining the elements of friendly Ezra and the popular Ezekiel, with the angelic-style of Gabriel, Rafael, and Azrael. Complete with the cool letter Z and with the nickname possibilities of Ezri and Ezzy, it could be interpreted to mean "God is my help".
First appearing in the US stats in 2009, it's been quietly on the rise since the late 2010s, with more than 70 boys given the name in a recent year.
Pronounced EZ-ray-ul.
As of October 2026, Ezrael ranked #2042 in US births in 2025 SSA.
