Handsome and lovely name. No (cookie lover) there is nothing old and annoying about this name at all. This name is 10/10 Period.

The only Adriel I ever met was someone's mom. Didn't realise it was almost always masculine, though I find it pleasant either way.

Lovely name. It may be confused with the much more popular Adrian though. Other than that, it’s a very handsome name.

I'm a girl, and my name is Adriel. I got the name long before it became popular enough to earn a ranking in the US. Every now and then it's a little weird to realize I have a "boy" name, and sometimes I wish my parents had doubled down on their unconventionality and added an "l" and "e" to the end, even if Adrielle is not a real name.
But.
All in all, I love my name. I think it's beautiful, and the lack of a feminizing "le" at the end makes it more direct. I also love having a rare name. In high school, my friend group contained, I kid you not FOUR Jenny's, all with different spellings. Me and another girl were the only two with a different name. Rarity wins, in my book.

Gender: Masculine
Usages: Biblical, Judeo-Christian Legend
Transcription: עַדְרִיאֵל
Meaning: From the Hebrew name עַדְרִיאֵל ('Adriy'el) which means either "flock of God" or "my help is God"; it is related etymologically to the Hebrew noun עֵ֫דֶר (eder) "a flock, herd, drove", itself derived from the verb עָדַר (adar), from עָזַר ('ázar) "to help, assist" (compare Azariah, Azarel, Ezer, Ezra). In the Old Testament this name belonged to a son-in-law of Saul (i.e., the Meholathite husband of Merab). Allegedly Adriel was one of the angels of death in Hebrew tradition, among Azrael, Bebriel and Hemeh; the name occurs in Thomas Heywood's 'Hierachy of Angels' (1635).
