Mikaela is a modern take on Scandinavian Michaela and is a feminine name particularly favored in Swedish and Finnish. Inspired by the Hebrew Michael, Mikaela means “who resembles God?” It’s unsure where the recent rendition of this timeless classic came from, but it’s certainly gaining popularity in some corners of the world. In fact, Mikaela is one of the preferred girls’ names in Puerto Rico. If you’re a fan of Germanic-looking names, the “K” in Mikaela will help reel you in.
