History

The name of Angeli is derived from the surname Angeli, originating from the village of Peltovuoma (Bealdovuopmi) in Enontekiö. The surname is derived from the name of the lake Angelijärvi, itself derived from a Kemi Sámi word referring to the long-tailed duck (compare Inari Sámi áŋálâh). In the middle of the 19th century, two young men from the Angeli family moved from Peltovuoma to Inari, with the village eventually growing around their settlement.[2]
