Meaning & Origin

genitive plural of osla

Osiel is a boy's baby name of Hebrew origin, a variant of Uziel or Oziel, from Uzziel, meaning 'God is my strength' or 'my strength is God,' composed of oz (strength, power) and El (God).

A rare biblical name — Uzziel was a Levite mentioned in Exodus as a son of Kohath — Osiel has the strength-centered meaning that parents seeking faith-filled names value deeply. It's particularly used in Mexican and Central American Catholic communities as a distinctive Hebrew-rooted name.
