An uncommon Hebrew pick — distinctive and rare.
Yasiel is a boy's baby name of Hebrew origin, a variant of Jasiel or Jaziel, from the Hebrew meaning 'God's creation' or 'made by God.' The name gained significant American visibility through Yasiel Puig, the charismatic Cuban baseball outfielder who played in Major League Baseball.
Yasiel carries both biblical depth and Cuban-American cultural identity — for families with Cuban heritage or simply admirers of the sport, it is a distinctive and meaningful choice.
Yasiel has 20+ years of history in the U.S., first appearing in 2003.
