Micaiah

Micaiah is a biblical name of Hebrew origin meaning 'who is like God?'. It is derived from the Hebrew words 'mi' meaning 'who' and 'cah' meaning 'like', combined with the word for 'God', which is 'Yah'.

In the Old Testament, Micaiah was the name of a prophet who confronted King Ahab of Israel and warned him of the consequences of going to war against Aram. Despite the king's dislike for Micaiah's prophecy, the prophet remained steadfast in delivering God's message.

The name Micaiah is often associated with courage, honesty, and faithfulness to one's beliefs. It can also be seen as a reminder to remain humble before God and to seek divine guidance in difficult situations.

While Micaiah is more commonly used as a boy's name, it can also be given to girls, particularly in certain religious or cultural contexts.
