In Christian Gnosticism, the 7 archangels are Gabriel, Raphel, Barachiel, Michael, Uriel, Sealtiel, and Jehudiel. Note that the the First Book of Enoch lists seven, but three are different - Remiel, Raguel, and Sargael take the place of Barachiel, Sealtiel, and Jehudiel.
There are three explicitly named archangels according to the new testament. These are Gabriel, Michael and Raphael who identifies himself in Tobit 12:15 - For I am the Angel Raphael, one of seven, who stand before the Lord.” The book of enoch defines the others as Uriel, Raguel, Sariel and Jerahmeel. These are, therefore, often cited as the seven archangels according to Catholicism.
If you will go back to Genesis chapter 5 and start with Adam you will find that Enoch is number 7. Adam, Seth, Enosh, Cainan, Mahalalel, Jared, and Enoch, number 7.
The Catholic Church only recognizes the names of three archangels, those of Michael, Raphael and Gabriel. The other four often referenced come from the apocryphal book of Enoch, a book often attributed to the early Gnostics. These four angels are named Uriel, Raguel, Zerachiel and Remiel although these names often change over the centuries depending on who is citing them.
