Anghel is a unisex given name of Romanian origin, derived from the Greek word "Ἄγγελος" meaning "messenger". In Romania, it's most commonly used as a male name but has also been occasionally used for females. It is often shortened to the pet form "Ange". The name Anghel was popularized in Romania during the Middle Ages through the Orthodox Church, as angels are revered figures in Christianity.
By 2003, six individuals were named Anghel at birth.
