History & Origin

Jaliel is a recent American coinage, built from the fashionable Ja- prefix and the ancient Hebrew ending -el, God. It appears in United States records only from around the year two thousand.

It was never common, given to only about twenty boys a year at its high around the year two thousand nine. Its appeal blends a modern prefix with a scriptural-sounding close.

Did you know? The closing -el gives the coinage the same divine echo found in Gabriel, Daniel, and Ariel, even though Jaliel itself is newly made.
