Ezriel
Ezriel Origin and Meaning
Ezriel is a masculine name with Hebrew origins, functioning as a variation of Azriel or Azrael, meaning 'help of God' or 'God is my help.' The name combines elements of the popular biblical name Ezra with the theophoric suffix '-el' denoting 'God.' In Jewish tradition, Azrael is sometimes associated with the angel of death, though this connection is less emphasized in modern usage of Ezriel. The name has maintained modest usage in Jewish communities and has seen some increased interest as parents seek biblical names with less common variations. Ezriel offers the appealing nickname options of Ez or Ezri while providing a name with strong spiritual significance and an attractive, distinctive sound that balances traditional roots with contemporary appeal.
