Miha - one of the most popular baby names in Slovenia

In 2005 Miha was eleventh on the list of most popular boys' names in Slovenia. But no mater which year's statistics of male names we would look at, Miha would always be close to the top.

This name is actually a short version of Mihael - English Michael - and is often translated as such.

But wait, secret is of coolness is not in the way Miha is spelled as much as in the way this name is pronounced in Slovenia.

Say Miha like

There you go!

DP2727 says:

I agree that Miha is the coolest baby name ever. The pronounciation should be spelled more like Mii-HA. "Mi" as pronounced in "mirror" and "ha" as pronounced in "harmony." This always seems to be a trendy name every year in Slovenia.

No way!

 

Miha - Mihael - Michael

The meaning of the name

MICHAEL

Gender: Masculine

Usage: English, German, Czech, Biblical

Pronounced: MI-khah-el (German)
From the Hebrew name (Mikha'el) meaning "who is like God?".

This is a rhetorical question, implying no person is like God. Saint Michael was one of the seven archangels in Hebrew tradition and the only one identified as an archangel in the Bible. In the Book of Revelation in the New Testament he is portrayed as the leader of heaven's armies, and thus is considered the patron saint of soldiers.

The popularity of the saint led to the name being used by nine Byzantine emperors, including Michael VIII Palaeologus who restored the empire in the 13th century. It has been common in Western Europe since the Middle Ages, and in England since the 12th century.

It has been borne (in various spellings) by rulers of Russia, Romania (Mihai), Poland, and Portugal (Miguel).

Other more modern bearers of this name include the British chemist/physicist Michael Faraday (1791-1867) and basketball player Michael Jordan (1963-).

    I have heard the name Mya on a woman but never the name Miha for a man. I think it is a beautiful name for either.

    Not sure if I agree with your hypothesis, but I loved the lens.

    What a beautiful name! I once had a dear friend by the name of Michael. Also, a great-grandfather was named Mihaly Kovacs -- Michael Kovach. Welcome to the Everything Eastern European group.
