This school year, Holly and I are studying the names of God, beginning with Elohim - God - All Powerful One - Creator. Many Bible name end with the letters el which means "God" and I tried to find a list of Bible names ending in el and their meanings on the internet but couldn't find one. So I thought I'd make one myself. This is not yet an exhaustive list so if I've left off your favorite, please let me know. Eventually I want to add the Bible references.
Abiel - God is my Father
Asahel - creature of God
Ariel - lion of God
Azareel - help of God
Azarel - God has helped
Bethel - house of God
Daniel - God is my judge
Emmanuel - God is with us
Ezekiel - God strengthens
Gabriel - man of God
Gamaliel - benefit of God
Hazael - God sees
Ishmael - God will hear
Israel - who prevails with God
Jahleel - God waits
Jazeel - strength of God
Jeheiel - God lives
Joel - Yahweh is God
Lemuel - belonging to God
Lael - to God
Michael - who is like God
Nathaniel - God has given
Reuel - Friend of God
Samuel - Asked of God
Shemuel - appointed by God
Uriel - God is my light
Uzziel - my power is God
Zuriel - my rock is God
