About the name Gabriel in Korean
Gabriel is written 가브리엘 (Ga-beu-ri-el) in four beats, and it holds a vowel that English speakers often find hard: ㅡ (eu), a flat vowel with spread lips, in 'beu'. The meaning names add another hard one, ㅓ (eo), like the 'u' in 'cup', in 건 and 현. 건우 (健宇) is the calmest and strongest. 건 is the nearest Korean syllable to 'Ga-', and 健 reflects 'God is my strength'. 규현 (圭賢) ends on 현, which rhymes with the 'el' of Gabriel, and it feels the most formal, noble and wise. 가온 (嘉溫) shares the exact opening 가 and is the warmest and most joyful of the three. It is also an old Korean word for 'center'. The English-style spelling 게이브리얼 is rarer than 가브리엘.
