Haziel

An alternative form of Hazael, a King in the Old Testament, or a diminutive of Jahaziel, a Levite prophet, this quietly used Biblical name shares sounds with rising choices such as Azrael, Aziel, and Jaziel. There's also a hint of the vintage and nature-inspired Hazel, which may appeal to those who enjoy softer feeling names for boys.

Also used as the name of the guardian angel of mercy, forgiveness and reconciliation in astrology, Haziel is nearly five times more popular than it was in 2020, and made its debut in the US Top 1000 in 2025 when it was one of the fastest rising names of the year.

Haziel is also given to girls, where it ranks #7623 in the US.

Pronounced HAZ-ee-ul.

As of October 2026, Haziel ranked #795 in US births in 2025 SSA, Nameberry popularity #467.
