Michal Escapa (Hebrew: מיכל אסקפה) is a former Israeli Paralympic champion.
Since at the dawn of the Paralympic Games there was no precision in reporting the results of the competitions, the Israeli athlete was indicated with the Italian nationality and without prename (and so she is mentioned in the International Paralympic Committee of the Italian Paralympic Committee web sites) for the reports of the Swimming at the 1964 Summer Paralympics where she won two bronze medals, simply reported as Escapa and not as Michal Escapa. However, as can be seen from a 1968 Israeli newspaper reporting an interview with the athlete, she was the same athlete who had won medals in swimming and table tennis in Tokyo 1964.

Michael Bates, of Bringing Up Bates fame, was originally named Michal. Gil and Kelly Bates realized long after she was born, that they disapproved of Michal in the bible. They wanted to change the name, but didn't want to spend money on having the name legally changed. They could change/add a letter for free so they added the e to make Michael.
