Answer
Hello,
The name Ariel is good for a boy.
Sources: We have already found in the Tanakh a person named Ariel; see the book of Ezra (chapter 8, verse 16). It is also brought in the book Yeshuot Mordechai (page 116) in the name of Hagr"m Eliyahu zt"l that the name Ariel is good for boys.
With blessings of mazel tov and much pleasure,
