Alicia I have a brother named Micah and I have always thought it was a wonderful name..I wanted to name my son this...It's unique tab i love this name for a girl too! it is def going on my name list! Bethany My husband's name is Micah and I love this name! I just don't like it when people think his name is Mike or spell his name Micha. What's sad is people at church misspell his name and Micah is a book in the bible, on of the minor prophets! Jenna This is going to be my first sons name, even though that is a while a way. I have liked this name for about ever. Micah Alexander. (:
