This name can also be used as a Feminine name in Germany and several other countries like the Phillipines, making this name Unisex. I am just wondering why on earth in December 8th 2022, the name's gender is reverted to just Masculine?

In GERMANY, a total of 2 BOYS and 4 GIRLS were named ENGEL from 2000 to 2018
In places like BRAZIL and ITALY, it's more common as a FEMININE name but STILL UNISEX.

Originally my family is of Hungarian descent, Austrian Hungari. This was after Germany was separated back in 1866 where I found my family tree line started in 1877. So my tree line comes from a Hungarian background along with us being Spaniard French descendants. Family history line is hard to follow, especially when it's not passed down from generation to generation. So if you can try and form your family line as soon as possible well those numbers are still with us before you lose knowledge of where you come from. Yes there's DNA testing that can tell you where you come from but it doesn't necessarily tell you whom you come from.
Also a unisex name leaning feminine in Dutch: http://www.meertens.knaw.nl/nvb/populariteit/naam/Engel.
This can also be a female name, I've seen two women in my family lines that had this name in the late 1700s/early 1800s.
My last name-yes, last name- is Engel. I get comments on it all the time from the exchange students asking me if I know what it means. And I do. My Grandfathers family came straight from Germany with the last name, and most of my family has it on my dad's side. Not to mention relatives we don't even know about!
I've never met anyone named Engel here. For me, it would be weird to name my son this, living in Germany. But it is a cute nickname for your son, of course(:
