Thanks for that information Tamar. I didn't know that. I always understood that 'Manuel' meant 'God within us' so I assumed Emmanuel was similar.
>>Well, it 'sounds' pretty anyway :o) In Spanish it is a derivative of 'Manuel.' I think it may derive from the name Emmanuel in Hebrew too.

>And Emmanuel means "God is with us." As I said elsewhere recently, "El" means "God," so almost all those names with "el" in them are "God" something.
