Abagael Origin and Meaning

The name Abagael is a girl's name.

Abagael is a feminine name that represents a distinctive spelling variant of Abigail, which derives from the Hebrew name 'Avigayil,' meaning 'my father's joy' or 'source of joy.' This particular spelling adds a touch of uniqueness while maintaining the connection to the biblical Abigail, who was known for her beauty, wisdom, and diplomatic skills. The inclusion of the 'ae' digraph gives the name a somewhat Celtic or classical feel. While much less common than the standard Abigail, Abagael emerged as parents sought more distinctive variations of traditional names. The name shares the warm, positive associations of joy and intelligence connected with all forms of Abigail, while its uncommon spelling offers individuality without straying too far from familiar territory.
