Manuel is a bastardised rape of the Hebrew name. Shameful, yes, but definately connected. My name means young welp or something. My first name, Gareth, is Welsh, my Last name Collins in an Anglicization of the Irish 'ó Coileáin' which means 'Young Warrior' (Penal Laws by the British invaders meant that many last names had to be changed to purge Gaelic from Ireland).
There ya have it.
