Meaning: who resembles God?

Mykal is a refreshing take on the masculine name Michael, its striking appearance worthy of deep reflection. Such pauses for thought are fitting for this long-held biblical name, whose root lies in the Hebrew Mīkhāʼēl, "who is like God?" Though encouraging deep self-reflection, Mykal carries within it a humble reminder that none are akin to a deity. While Michael may inspire grand images of a powerful divine protector, Mykal's unusual look keeps the name firmly grounded as a reminder of one's humility.
