Michael or Micha'el is a given name that comes from Hebrew, meaning "Who is like God?".
Michael is a popular name in the United States, and has been the first or second most popular name given to male babies in the U.S. for each year since 1954. The name has been popular in Orthodox Christian countries, and was borne by several rulers of the Byzantine and Russian Empires. In English it is sometimes shortened to Mike or, especially in Ireland, Mick. The name first appears in the Bible, where Sethur the son of Michael is one of twelve spies sent into the Land of Canaan.
