A colloquial nickname for Los Angeles, California, derived from the city's full Spanish name 'El Pueblo de Nuestra Señora la Reina de los Ángeles' (The Town of Our Lady the Queen of the Angels). 'Angel City' is used affectionately and poetically in journalism, music, sports (LA's NWSL team is called Angel City FC), and promotional contexts. It has a warmer, more romantic connotation than plain 'LA' or 'Los Angeles,' evoking the city's sun, glamour, and mythology.
