Michael: Boys Baby Name Meaning

Michael Baby Name

The name Micheal means ‘who is like God?’

Michael is derived from the Hebrew ‘Mikha’el’ translating into a question: ‘Who is like God?’ This particular question is believed to be rhetorical; the implied answer is clear: no one is like God. Therefore, the translation of the name Michael is often one of humility and deference before God. 

In Biblical tradition, Michael was one of the archangels who stood close to God and carried out His judgments (he was also considered a protector of the ancient Hebrews).

Michael was the chief leader of the angels who fought and defeated the dragon (i.e., the devil), hurling him from heaven (Revelation 12:7-9). As such, he became of symbol of the Church Militant and a patron saint of soldiers. 

Michael has been in circulation among English speakers since the 12th century.

The name Michael conveys a sense of power, bravery and strength by its translated meaning; but also a symbol of humility expressed very simply by that question mark.

Famous people who share the name Michael:

Michael Ancram, British politician; Michael Andretti, American auto racing driver; Michael Wallberg, American actor; Michael Jordan, American Basketballer.
