Re: Could you please help me with a very unusual name?
Thank you very much for everything :) I found exactly the same thing: Ashael is an alternative spelling for Azael, and I'm from a Spanish speaking country so yeap, you pronounce Azael and Ashael practically the same way.
I think Asiel is another spelling of Aziel, a flower name (girl).
Greetings,
Cez :)

How do you mean 'flower name'?I think Aziel/Asiel/Azahel/Asahel/Azael/Asael are essentially the same Hebrew name, defined as "creature of/created by/made by/work of God."These names are inherently masculine and to make the feminine form from them, Italians add '-la', the French add '-le', and the Spanish add '-a'.

I found 2 meanings for Aziel:
male --> "created by god"
female --> a "flower" name... I think it was Azalea but I'm not sure. I know a woman with that nameThanks for the info :)

Oh, these are two totally different names."Azalea," as the bush of that name, is from Greek 'azaleos' meaning 'dry.'"Aziel/Azael" and other variations are Hebrew given names.

Then the info I read's wrong. Anyway, thanks for all the info! :)

You're welcome. I enjoyed the research and seeing it come to a good understandable end, even when you threw curve balls like "Azalea."From this point on, I won't think of these Hebrew names without recalling the similar Greek plant nomenclature.Best of luck.

I don't know exactly why you assume the name to be Filipino, I have found no evidence of this. The name may be found in the Philippines, as I have found some evidence of "Taija" in use alongside Spanish names. I don't believe it to be a common Spanish name though, and can find no Spanish definition or longer name from which it is derived.But I have no doubt "Taija" is a Finnish name. Taken from another post on this website, I have learned it is a Finnish pet-form of "Tatyana." "Tatyana" traces its origin back to Latin, but its meaning is unknown.
