Gabriele
Gabriele Origin and Meaning
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.' While Gabriel is common in English-speaking countries, Gabriele represents the traditional Italian, German, and Central European masculine form. 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. Gabriele offers a sophisticated European alternative to Gabriel while maintaining the same powerful meaning and biblical connection to the archangel Gabriel, messenger of God.
