Uriel
One celestial chief
Uriel is one of the archangels in Jewish and Christian tradition, though not named in canonical scripture.

Uriel appears in apocryphal texts as a figure of wisdom and divine illumination, sometimes depicted guarding the gates of Eden.
The name is used for boys, particularly in Hispanic and Jewish communities.
