About Joseangel
Joseangel is a masculine compound name that combines the traditional names José (Joseph) and Angel. With Spanish origins, this melodic name unites the Hebrew Joseph, meaning 'God will add,' with Angel, derived from the Greek 'angelos' meaning 'messenger.' Popular in Spanish-speaking countries, particularly Mexico and parts of Central America, Joseangel reflects the strong Catholic tradition of naming children after saints and divine figures. The name has gained modest popularity since the 1980s, especially in Latino communities. Parents choosing this name often appreciate its religious significance while giving their son a distinctive yet traditional identity that honors family heritage.
Pronounced hoh-say-AHN-hel.
As of October 2026, Joseangel ranked #5990 for boys in US births in 2025 SSA, peaked at #2074 for boys in 2001.
