Camael, also spelled Kamael, Chamuel, Khamuel, Camiel, Cameel and Camniel, is an archangel in Christian angelology. Chamuel is the archangel of love, peace and harmony. ^[1]

Camael was excluded from the Holy See's list of named angels in the 2001 Directory on popular piety, which states: "The practice of assigning names to the Holy Angels should be discouraged, except in the cases of Gabriel, Raphael, and Michael whose names are contained in Holy Scripture". ^{[2] [1]}
