Gabriele is a masculine name of Hebrew origin, derived from the name Gabriel, which means 'God is my strength' or 'God's able-bodied one.'

In Italy particularly, Gabriele has maintained consistent popularity for boys. The name carries historical significance through notable bearers like Italian poet Gabriele D'Annunzio. Internationally, the pronunciation varies slightly, typically 'gah-bree-EH-leh' in Italian and 'gah-bree-EH-luh' in German contexts.
