History & Origin

Mikyle is a modern respelling of Michael, one that also winks at the name Kyle. The root is the Hebrew Mikha'el, 'who is like God?', an archangel's name and one of the most enduring in the Western world. The inventive spelling is recent; the meaning it carries is thousands of years old.

Mikyle was never common in the United States, given to only about twenty boys a year at its faint peak in the early two-thousands, a small creative eddy beside the ever-popular Michael. A boy named Mikyle then is in his twenties today.

Did you know? Mikyle folds the name Kyle into the spelling of Michael, so a single modern coinage nods to two familiar names at once while keeping Michael's ancient meaning.
