Michaiah is a distinctive and uncommon male given name of Hebrew origin. It means 'Who is like God?' This name holds significant biblical importance, as it is derived from the name Micha ( Micah), which appears in the Old Testament. Michaiah consists of two elements: 'Mika', meaning 'who is like', and 'El', signifying 'God'. Thus, Michaiah literally translates to 'Who is like God?' Michaiah has been used sparingly throughout history but offers a unique opportunity for parents seeking an uncommon yet meaningful name for their child.
"Michaiah saw its highest popularity in the late 1990s and early 2000s, with a peak of 24 births in 2007. However, it has since seen a significant decline, with only 7 births each in 2015 and 2018."
