The name Michael is of Hebrew origin and has two primary meanings: "who is like God?" and "gift from God". It is derived from the Hebrew phrase מי כאל mī kāʼēl. The name has been popular in various forms across different cultures and religions, including Judaism, Christianity, and Islam. The origin of the name Michael can be traced back to the Old Testament, notably in the Book of Daniel, where it is referenced in the context of an archangel who is a protector of Israel. In the New Testament, Michael is portrayed as the leader of heaven's armies, making him a patron saint of soldiers in Christianity. The name has been common in Western Europe since the Middle Ages and in England since the 12th century. It has also been borne by emperors, kings, and saints throughout history, contributing to its widespread appeal and timeless nature.
