What Does the Name Gabryela Mean?
Gabryela is most often treated as a spelling variant of Gabriela, the feminine form of Gabriel. The name comes from the Hebrew Gavri'el (גַבְרִיאֵל), which is commonly translated "God is my strength." The Hebrew elements are usually explained as gabar or gever - connected with strength or with "man" - and El, a Hebrew word for God. A more literal reading is "strong man of God" or "man of God"; "God is my strength" is a customary interpretation of the same parts. The final -a marks the name as feminine, and the y in Gabryela is a spelling variation. Neither changes the Hebrew root.
Gabryela Name History & Origins
The Hebrew name Gavri'el appears in the Bible as the name of an angel. In the Book of Daniel, Gabriel explains a vision to Daniel; in the Gospel of Luke, Gabriel announces the births of John the Baptist and Jesus. Jewish and Christian tradition counts Gabriel among the archangels. The name was used as a male given name in medieval Christian Europe, and feminine forms such as Gabriela, Gabriella, Gabrielle, and German Gabriele appear in European languages. Gabryela belongs to this family of feminine forms, and its etymology is the same as that of Gabriela. Its y is a spelling variation rather than evidence of a different origin; in Polish and some other Slavic spellings, y represents a vowel, while in English the same spelling is often a stylistic variant of Gabriela.
