Mykel

Mykel is a variant spelling of the name Michael, which is derived from the Hebrew name Mikhael, meaning 'who is like God'. It is a biblical name, borne by one of the archangels in the Judeo-Christian tradition.

The name Michael has been popular for centuries and has been used in various cultures around the world. The spelling variation Mykel is more commonly used in English-speaking countries, particularly in the United States.

While the name Michael has a strong religious association, it has also been widely adopted as a secular name. Its popularity can be attributed to its strong, masculine sound and the positive connotations of strength and courage associated with the archangel Michael.

Mykel, like Michael, is generally considered a masculine name, though some parents may choose to use it as a gender-neutral name in modern times.
