An%c4%91ela

Anđela is a South Slavic feminine form of the Greek name Angelos, meaning messenger or angel, referring to a divine herald or heavenly being. It entered the Slavic naming tradition through Christian influence, as angels held a central place in Orthodox and Catholic religious culture across the Balkans. The name is widely used in Croatia, Serbia, and Bosnia, and is the regional equivalent of Angela, the Latinized form that spread throughout Western Europe. Related forms include Anđelija, Anđelka, and the masculine Anđelo.
