History & Origin

Angelli elaborates Angel and Angela — Greek angelos, 'messenger, angel' — with the Italianate -elli ending (as in Botticelli), a flourish favored in Latin American naming. It joins Angeli, Angelie, and Angely in a melodic family.

In the U.S. it appears in Latino families, rare nationally. Angelic at the root, operatic at the close.

Did you know? Angelos, the Greek root, meant simply 'messenger' before it meant 'angel' — the winged beings got their name from the job of carrying word between heaven and earth.
