Joel
Book after Hosea
Joel is a masculine given name of Hebrew origin, meaning "Yahweh is God." It appears in the Bible as one of the twelve minor prophets.
The name remains common in English-speaking countries: Joel couldn't make it to the meeting.
In Spanish-speaking contexts, the stress falls on the second syllable.
