Thayer's Greek Lexicon
Ναθαναήλ, 6, (0) gift of God), Nathanael, an intimate disciple of Jesus: Jn. i. 45-49 (46-50) ; xxi. 2. He is commonly thought to be identical with Bartholomew, because as in Jn. i. 45 (46) he is associated with Philip, soin Mt. x. 3; Mk. iii. 18; Lk. vi. 14 Bartholomew is; Nathanael, on this supposition, was his personal name, and Bartholomew a title derived from his father (see Βαρθολομαῖος). But in Actsi. 13 Thomas is placed between Philip and Bartholomew; [see B D. 5. v. Nathaniel]. Spath in the Zeitschr. f. wissensch. Theologie, 1868, pp. 168 sqq. 309 sqq. [again 1880, p. 78 sqq.] acutely but vainly tries to prove that the name was formed by the Fourth Evangelist symbolically to designate ‘ the disciple whom Jesus loved (see Ἰωάννης, 2).
