Islamic/Arabic term for angel?

I wanted to know what the term for Angel was. Something parallel to Jinn. Also, is there a term for humans? And to confirm, Jinn are made of fire, Humans of earth, and Angels of air?

The angels are the malaika and are made of Noor (light). Humankind is al-nas (mankind) or bani Adam (children of Adam). Jinn are made of fire; humans are made of clay.

Wa Allahu alim,
