Angel - Both the Hebrew malakh′ and the Greek aggelos literally mean "messenger."
The angels were created long before man's appearance, because we read at the 'founding of the earth' "the morning stars joyfully cried out together, and all the sons of God began shouting in applause." Job 38:4-7.
Archangel- The prefix "arch," meaning "chief" or "principal," implies that there is only one archangel, the chief angel; in the Scriptures, "archangel" is never plural.
An archangel is a chief or principle angel by definition. Angel's were created as spirit beings. The term "arch" denotes that there would only be one archangel. A saint, or "holy one", is a human that has been anointed to rule with Christ as a resurrected spirit creature in heaven sometime after their death.
Castiel is just an angel not an archangel. Gabriel and Michael are however.
