History & Origin

Emanual is a variant spelling of Emmanuel, from the Hebrew Immanu'el, 'God is with us', a name of deep biblical resonance. The reshuffled spelling appears in United States birth records across the twentieth century, reached its modest high around 2001, and was never common in this form, given to only a couple dozen boys a year.

Because its high point came recently, a boy given the Emanual spelling may well be young. The name carries the same reverent meaning as Emmanuel, and while the standard spelling is far more common, this variant persists as a family form.

Did you know? Emanual keeps the meaning of Emmanuel - 'God is with us' - a phrase drawn straight from the Hebrew scriptures.
