Great name, I love it! Not sure if I'd use it for my own child, but it's lovely, and I love the Christian connotation, also that it is similar to another name I like - Samuel. It has something magical to it. It's delicate and soft but has a masculine, upper class feel nevertheless.
Also used in Poland, not very common overall, but, just as similarly sounding Samuel, it is getting more and more attention from parents. Last year (2017) the name Emanuel was given to 29 boys. Manuel and Emmanuel were also used last year, as well as Manuela for girls. Pronunciation is e-mah-NOO-el, but I've also heard it pronounced e-MAH-noo-el by Poles.
