Comments for the name Nathanael

This name is pronounced nah-tah-nah-el in Hebrew.

You have the vowels on the Hebrew mistaken. As you wrote it, it would be NatanAl, instead of NatanEl (Sorry I can't show you as I don't have the Hebrew vowels on this computer).

This isn't the most common spelling of this name but I like the biblical reference to it.

I really love this name, and it's one of the names I know I want to give to my son. Also, I like this so much better than Nathaniel. I don't know why, but the "i" really bothers me.

Famous bearer - Nathanael Greene, a major general of the Continental Army in the American Revolutionary War. Greene was one of Washington's most trusted generals.

Also sometimes pronounced nah-THAN-ay-el.

Nathanael has been my favorite boy's name for the last 15 years. I love the meaning "Gift of God."

The Greek form of Nathanael is ναθαναηλ.

I plan on, if I ever have a son, naming him this. I think it's strong biblical, and Nathan makes a nice nickname. It's very masculine but works for a child. PERFECT!

Nathanael West was a sardonic American author best known for his short novels Miss Lonelyhearts (which you should read) and The Day of the Locust.
