Mikial is of American origin, derived from the Hebrew name Michael, which means 'who is like God'. It gained popularity in the United States during the mid-20th century and has since become a distinctively American given name. The variant spelling Mikial adds a unique twist to the classic name Michael, making it less common but still recognizable due to its root origin.
The name Mikial had a brief period of popularity between 2003 and 2005 with six births each year, but it seems to have been largely overlooked during other years as only five babies were named Mikial in 1998. In total, there were seventeen children named Mikial over these seven years.
