Mikhal
and Michal
A proper name referring to a woman, specifically the younger daughter of Saul and first wife of David. The etymology suggests a meaning somewhat akin to 'Who is like El (God)?', but in the biblical text, the term functions as a personal name, not as a descriptive or titular phrase, and is devoid of transparent meaning in most contexts.
