My helper
Derived from Hebrew roots, Gadriel is often interpreted as meaning 'God is my helper' or 'God is my fortune.' In various traditions of angelology, Gadriel is cited as a fallen angel or a watcher, though it is increasingly used as a modern spiritual name. It shares the 'el' suffix common to many angelic names like Gabriel and Michael.
