Mishael Origin and Meaning

The name Mishael is a girl's name.

Mishael is a feminine name with ancient Hebrew origins, though traditionally used for males in biblical contexts. Appearing in the Old Testament as one of Daniel's companions (also known as Meshach), the name means 'who is what God is' or 'who is like God.' This rhetorical question emphasizes the incomparable nature of the divine. The feminine usage represents a modern adaptation of this biblical name. Mishael offers an alternative to the more common Michael or Michelle while maintaining the same spiritual heritage. The name combines melodic quality with religious significance, making it appealing to parents seeking a name with biblical roots but a distinctive sound. Though uncommon in contemporary usage, it carries historical depth and spiritual meaning.
