What do you think of the name Arcangela?

Pronounced Ark - [name_f]Angela[/name_f].

Means “High Ranking or Chief [name_u]Angel[/name_u]” in Greek.

It sounds extremely religious to me, because of the archangels. Not a bad association by any means but I guess it’s something to take into consideration.

I’m personally not keen at all because of an association to something within my own culture (a music artist).

Hmm I actually kind of like it. It feels familiar because of [name_f]Angela[/name_f].
Maybe you would like [name_f]Seraphina[/name_f]/Serafina too?

It sounds very harsh, and I find it kind of hard to say, so I’m not a wild fan. It’s also super religious sounding (not that that’s necessarily a bad thing), but it’s not even in my opinion one of the nicer sounding religious names. I like [name_f]Angela[/name_f], and I’ve met an [name_f]Arcana[/name_f] who wore her name well, but as one name I find it just too much.
If it’s the sounds you like, I’d recommend either [name_f]Angela[/name_f] or [name_f]Arcana[/name_f]. If it’s the meaning that speaks to you, what about [name_f]Seraphina[/name_f]? It’s meaning is related to the [name_m]Seraphim[/name_m], which are the highest-ranking angels, but it sounds much nicer all around

I agree with @ceilidh_rooney

Reminiscent of [name_u]Elon[/name_u] Musk’s newest baby, Archangel / ex ash ae-ii

It does feel a bit clunky when I say it out loud, and it does remind me a bit of [name_u]Elon[/name_u] Musk’s baby name :confused: [name_u]Love[/name_u] the suggestions of [name_f]Arcana[/name_f], [name_f]Angela[/name_f] and [name_f]Seraphina[/name_f] though!

It sounds awkward to me. [name_f]Angela[/name_f]/Angelica/Angelina are all lovely options.

It reminds me a bit too much of arch angel

My first thought is [name_m]Michelangelo[/name_m] actually :joy: not sure why

And [name_f]Angela[/name_f] feels dated to me so archangela despite being unique and unusual weirdly has a dated feel to me

Angelina, Angelie and [name_f]Angelica[/name_f] all feel more usable
