This name is also sometimes used in Brazil, where it's a variant of the usual Portuguese form Nataniel. (In Brazil, TH is commonly used in place of T, such as in the names Thiago and Nathália.)

I appreciate all of you who distinguish between Nathaniel and Nathan, and the short version of the name, Nat and Nate, respectively. As a young Nathaniel I had always been called "Nat" and at the time it irritated me to be called, "Nate."
All that aside, I was named after my Great, Great, Great, Great Grandfather, Nathaniel Ames. An interesting "old coot" who served in the Revolutionary War and at age 30 became a Methodist Minister.
If you look up the Hebrew, nĕthan'ēl, it is translated to mean (gift of God).
After 70 years of bearing the name, I respect it and feel honored to be so named.
