Meaning & origin

Angelis is a modern invented name that blends the appeal of 'angel' names with a melodic suffix. First recorded in 1988, it has never cracked the top 1,000, indicating niche usage. Its peak year was 2007, but since 2010 the name has been falling in popularity. While top states are not recorded, the name reflects a contemporary trend of creating unique, feminine-sounding names from familiar roots.

The name Angelis first appeared in U.S. records in 1988, likely a modern invented name combining the root 'angel' (from Greek angelos, 'messenger') with a fashionable suffix. It has never ranked among the top 1,000 names, and its usage peaked in 2007 before declining. The name is primarily used for girls, though its sound is unisex.
