Hi, my name is Remiel and I'm glad to know the purpose of my name. I am 12 yrs old and I think it's a good name for a boy and also a girl yet some may say it wrong like Ramyul or Ramil but I'm glad to have this name... Enjoy life while you still can!
My name is Remi, it's short for Remigius. Still fallen into the clay of the Netherlands, haha. I found that the meaning of Remiël being 'the thunder of god' fits perfectly if it comes to aspects of my personality.., :)
I wish that it did mean 'mercy of God,' because based on this definition I chose it for a fictional character. Actually, I added an L and an E to make it feminine, the way that Gabriel becomes Gabrielle. I will keep it. It is unique and suits my character aesthetically if not in meaning.
My son's name is Remiel and I absolutely love it. As he is our third son we wanted to keep with the theme of old and unusual names that we have with our other children. It's a very versatile name that has great nicknames to be worn throughout life.

I'm suprised that I'm the first person to leave a message here! Well, I first stumbled accross "Remiel" while I was looking for a name for the hero of a science fiction story I was writing, and fell in love with it. It's almost a mature version of "Remy", but stronger, especially with the meaning. Mercy of God. Much better than "Oarsman" in my opinion! And the fact that it's possibly an angel's name makes it even better.
