  6. Makaela
    • Description:

      Makaela is a feminine name that represents a modern variant spelling of Michaela, the feminine form of Michael, which has Hebrew origins meaning 'who is like God?' This contemporary spelling incorporates elements popular in modern naming trends, with the 'k' replacing the traditional 'ch' and the additional vowels creating a softer sound. Makaela emerged in popularity during the late 1990s and early 2000s, alongside similar variations like Mikayla, Mikaela, and McKayla. The name offers parents a way to honor the traditional Michael while creating a distinctly feminine identity. Makaela typically conveys a sense of uniqueness and individuality while still maintaining recognizable roots, appealing to parents seeking a name that balances familiarity with originality.
