Gabel Origin and Meaning

The name Gabel is a boy's name.

Gabel is a masculine name with Germanic roots, functioning primarily as a surname before occasional use as a first name. Derived from the Middle High German 'gabel' meaning 'fork' or 'forked implement,' it originally designated a maker of forks or someone who lived near a forked road or river. As a personal name, Gabel carries a strong, concise sound with its two syllables and distinctive ending. The name shares similarities with biblical Gabriel but offers a more uncommon alternative. Gabel has never been widely used as a first name in English-speaking countries, giving it a distinctive quality for contemporary parents seeking unique options. With its Germanic heritage and straightforward pronunciation, Gabel represents a rare name choice with historical substance and a modern, minimalist appeal.
