Re: Sabriel, Lirael, Sameth
Sabrael, Sabriel One of the seven archangels as noted in The Testament of Solomon and 3 Enoch. He is chief of the order of tarshishim (”the brilliant ones”, virtues), sharing the post with Tarshiel and guard of the 1st Heaven. In occultism, he is the only angel who can overcome the demon of disease, Sphendonael.More commonly people will spell the name Sabrael, but just like Azrael it is not as commonly spelled with a riel ending.

Yeah I love the name Sabriel. I think when I get older I'll name a daughter that or Serafina. I've loved the name Serafina ever since I saw it when reading the His Dark Materials Series by Philip Pullman. Most of the names in the His Dark Materials Series are angel names or something to do with the christran religion which makes sense because of what the story is about.
