Comments (Meaning / History Only)

The name 'Michal' comes from the phrase 'mi col Adonai' (מי כל אדוני) in Hebrew, meaning 'who is like God?' or 'who has the power of God?'
According to The Jewish Encyclopedia (1904) the name Michal means "power".
Means "Who is like God". A sweet name, though if you are reading it for the first time, it may look like it is a guy's name.
Does not mean "who is like G-d". The AL at the end is the difference. 'EL' in Michael (who is like G-d?) is El associated with Elohim, the Hebrew word/title for God. AL is totally different.
Who is like god would be Mi-cha-el, or Michael.
