Meaning & Origin
Nathanaelle is a girl's baby name of Hebrew origin, a French feminine form of Nathanael meaning 'God has given' or 'gift of God,' from the Hebrew Netan'el. The -elle suffix creates an elegant French feminization of this biblical apostle's name.
Nathanael (also Bartholomew) was one of Jesus's twelve apostles, described in John's gospel as "an Israelite in whom there is no deceit." Nathanaelle takes this apostle's name and gives it a French feminine elegance — a name of biblical depth in Parisian attire.
