St. Gabriella
Patron Communications workers
Gabriella is the feminine form of Gabriel. Angels are spirits without bodies, who possess superior intelligence, gigantic strength, and surpassing holiness. They enjoy an intimate relationship to God as His special adopted children, contemplating, loving, and praising Him in heaven. Some of them are frequently sent as messengers to men from on high. The name Gabriel means "man of God," or "God has shown himself mighty." It appears first in the prophesies of Daniel in the Old Testament. The angel announced to Daniel the prophecy of the seventy weeks. His name also occurs in the apocryphal book of Henoch. He was the angel who appeared to Zachariah to announce the birth of St. John the Baptizer. Finally, he announced to Mary that she would bear a Son Who would be conceived of the Holy Spirit, Son of the Most High, and Saviour of the world. The feast day is September 29th. St. Gabriel is the patron of communications workers.

I absolutely love my name and thank you for giving more information on my patron saint. I am currently doing a family tree for my son and wanted to include our baptism&confirmation names ' origins and their respective saints feast days. This site has been most helpful.

I love the name Gabriel and I figured the closest girl name I would get to that is Gabriella. I'm very happy to know that they mean the same thing. But I do have a question. Although I am a girl, am I allowed to pick a male saint name?
hello , i think this wasnt good cuz i was lookin 4 st. gabriellla not gabriel . so yeah ... it kept talking bout gabriel and it was very annoying , thank you .
i think its good but there is little information about the saints. i think more would be better for all of us people to learn more about saints .
to name your girl gabriela or your son gabriel it is a great idea . a child it is the gift from god. welcom your gift with a beautiful name such as gabriela or gabriel
Hi,
Though you have provided the feminine version of Gabriel... I don't agree with your idea of creating this "feminine arch angel to be one possessing Gabriel's attributes" and celebrating it as a feast-day when it/she never exist(s/ed). I find this bit of information misleading and inconsistent with the Catholic Church. From here on, I doubt your database and have need to cross-reference with other websites regarding this kind of crucial information.
Regds,
Michael
