It means gift from God and my bf certainly fits that. If I were to marry Michael, Michael Jr. is a name I wouldn't mind naming my son" (Report as inappropriate)

Comment left May 07, 2008: "when people ask me if I go by Mike or Michael I usually opt for the less formal. It's been my experence that my friends and coworkers even after learning my preferance still choose to call me Michael. I know lots of Mikes or Michaels and once in a while 2 or 3 heads turn when called so what! It's a spiritual name and my parents gave it to me, Thanks Mom and Dad!" (Report as inappropriate)
Comment left Apr 11, 2008: "Solid name, easy to pronounce; and, even if there Are a number of Michael's in the world, every Michael Is different. It is a Spiritual name...what more could one want then a name to aspire to?" (Report as inappropriate)
Comment left Feb 28, 2008: "People with this name feel insignificant and bland. It's a beautiful sounding name, but WAY too common. My boyfriend, Michael wants to legally change his name because he says that "being named Michael is almost like not having a name at all since so many people have it." It's like being named "boy" he says. Everywhere he goes there is a Michael. I feel so bad for him sometimes." (Report as inappropriate)
Comment left Jan 03, 2008: "i know like 50 Michaels and theyre all so different the name has lost its individuality...if not for that it would be perfect! :)" (Report as inappropriate)

Comment left Jul 11, 2007: "It's one of the most pleasant sounding names I know of. It certainly creates difficulties though. If you're a Michael, you'll hear your name called out all the time, turn your head, and realize, oh, it's another Michael. Also, going to school was awkward, with an average of 3 of us in each class through the 80's and 90's." (Report as inappropriate)
Comment left Jul 07, 2007: "My name is Michael, it's far too popular, but for good reason." (Report as inappropriate)
