I like this name. It sounds like it fits a wise teacher. Hence the reason I've named one of my characters, a centaur, Gamaliel.

I love this name too it also brightens up my day when I hear it or come across it. It's a Greek form of the Hebrew name meaning "Reward of God". The name is hard to pronounce so I use GAMA for short, or like I would say in Spanish "De Cariño."
