Joel

Joel is a boy’s name of Hebrew origin, meaning “Jehovah is the Lord.” Dating back to biblical times, this name is steeped in history and culture, and is perfect for baby if you plan on raising them to follow in the original Joel's faithful footsteps. While the name does have strong religious associations, its popularity across North America rose significantly in the 1960s and 1970s. This timing could make the trendy title an ideal way to connect your little one to their old soul—as well as the freeness and merriment of the swinging sixties and everchanging seventies.
