History & Origin

Yetzael is a modern coinage, found especially in Latino naming, that ends in the Hebrew theophoric element -el, 'God' (as in Israel, Ezekiel). Its first element is not firmly attested in standard references; we present the clear -el meaning and flag the rest honestly.

It registers thinly in recent records. Rare, God-sealed at the ending, and modern.

Did you know? The -el closing Yetzael is the Hebrew word for God — the same ending that crowns Michael ('who is like God'), Gabriel ('God is my strength'), and Israel ('one who wrestles with God').
