Meaning & History
Strictly feminine form of the unisex name Engel. There might also be instances where this name is a variant of Angela, in which case it must have been deliberately altered to make the connection to angels more obvious, since engel is the Dutch and German word for "angel".Engel is also the name of a constituency in the town of Helao Nafidi, Ohangwena, Namibia. German and Afrikaans are official languages in Namibia.
