      The name Angiola is of Italian origin and is derived from the word angelo, which means angel or messenger. It embodies qualities often associated with angels, such as purity, guidance, and protection. The name signifies a connection to divine or spiritual messengers, reflecting attributes of grace and benevolence. As a variant of the name Angela, Angiola carries similar connotations, emphasizing the importance of communication and connection in a broader sense.
