Jaaziel 
The name Jaaziel occurs just once in the Bible. Jaaziel is a second rank Levitical musician who played during the Ark's transport from the house of Obed-edom to Jerusalem (1 Chronicles 15:18).
The name Jaaziel consists of two components. The final part is equal to the name  El, the abbreviated form of  Elohim, denoting the genus God.
Where the first part of the name Jaaziel comes from is not agreed upon. Jones' Dictionary of Old Testament Proper Names believes it has to do with a Arabic verb meaning to comfort, and renders the name Jaaziel the meaning of He Is Comforted Of God (also see the name Jaaziah).
