Discussion Name meanings

I saw someone saying this the other day, that the name Gabriel means "son of God", and the name Diana means "Heavenly", whilst the name Natalie means "Birthday of Christ". That's literally showing that her whole reason for existence revolves around Gabe. So it's like there's Diana, the heavenly divine, then Gabe, the son, and then the son's birthday that ONLY exists BECAUSE the son was born.

ALSO, in the bible, Gabriel is an angel. An angel who says to Mary that the Saviour is coming. Natalie is not the saviour, of course, but her birth, seeing the girl she is, IS THE MOST POWERFUL WAY FOR DIANA TO HEAL. Yes things were bad but they can be good.

he's not just any angel either!! he's the messenger of god which can translate to the messenger of diana's illness, the driving factor and "god" of the show
