Detailed Slovak etymology analysis

Meno Angelos je prepis gréckeho mužského mena Άγγελος. Vychádza zo starogréckeho podstatného mena ἄγγελος (ángelos), ktoré znamená „posol, poslanec“ a v náboženskom kontexte „anjel“. Latinské Angelus je prevzatá príbuzná podoba, nie samostatný pôvod gréckeho mena.

Sources and scholarly methodology: Pôvod a príbuzné podoby: Behind the Name – Angelos. Slovenské skloňovanie je aplikáciou pravidla o zachovaní -os v novogréckych menách: Morfológia slovenského jazyka, JÚĽŠ SAV. Výslovnosť: Άγγελος. Česká podoba: CoJeCo – Anděla; poľská podoba: DEON – Aniela. Medzinárodné ekvivalenty zahŕňajú aj zriedkavé a historické podoby. Štyri až sedem zaužívaných slovenských zdrobnenín sa nepodarilo spoľahlivo doložiť, preto je pole prázdne. Konkrétne heslo Angelos v monografii Milana Majtána nebolo overené; profil sa jej preto nepripisuje.
