Angeles is a Spanish feminine given name derived from the Latin word angelus, meaning messenger, which itself comes from the Greek angelos carrying the same sense. It originated as a Marian title, María de los Ángeles, honoring the Virgin Mary as queen of the angels, and became established as an independent given name in Spanish-speaking Catholic communities. The name shares its root with Angela, Angelo, and Angelica, all of which spread widely across Europe through Christian devotion.
