History & Origin

Mikelle is a modern American feminine of Michael, from Hebrew Mikha'el, 'who is like God?'. It is spelled to echo both Michelle — the French feminine of Michel — and Michaela, and it carries the French -elle ending that marks so many feminine forms (said 'mih-KEL').

It appears only rarely in the U.S. Rare, modern, and crisp.

Did you know? The -elle ending is a French feminine marker, which is why Michelle, Danielle and Mikelle all land on that soft, final beat — each one carrying a masculine name made feminine (said 'mih-KEL').
