Meaning of the name מייקי
Mikey is a modern, international term of endearment that serves as an affectionate shortened form of the Hebrew-biblical name Michael, or its international variants Mikael, Michaela, and Michal. The name Mikey reflects a contemporary trend in Hebrew naming culture, where parents choose short, light-hearted affectionate versions that combine the historical depth of biblical names with international accessibility and a modern character. Choosing the name Mikey indicates a desire to give a child an identity that connects rich Jewish heritage with natural integration into the modern, global world. The name Mikey maintains a meaningful connection to the Hebrew root Michael, whose name means "Who is like God" - a rhetorical question expressing the uniqueness and power of the Creator. Michael is one of the seven great angels in Jewish tradition and is considered the protector and leader of the angelic host. In the Book of Daniel, he is described as "the great prince who stands guard over your people," and in many Midrashim he appears as the advocate for the people of Israel before the throne of glory.
