Who is like God?
Michela is the Italian feminine form of Michael. It is derived from the Hebrew name Mikha'el, which poses a rhetorical question implying that no one is like the Creator. While the French variant Michelle became a mid-century staple in the US, Michela remains a rare and elegant alternative for American parents.
