I don't like it at all, I'm afraid. If it fits his family heritage, that's fine, but otherwise I'd say stick with Michael.

CaulkheadUpNorf · 06/06/2017 16:48

I know one, pronounced Mick-ale but shortened to Miki.

Rockaby · 06/06/2017 16:38

I like it and I'd have guessed Mick-isle.

Sophronia · 06/06/2017 15:43

Mi-kyle. I like it.

BernardsarenotalwaysSaints · 06/06/2017 12:50

Mik-ale. I like it.

Mrsknackered · 06/06/2017 12:46

Mik-ale.
I really like it

Lemondrop99 · 06/06/2017 10:33

I like it

I'd probably pronounce it Mick-ale

MamaHanji · 06/06/2017 09:41

Like if

Mik-ale

So pretty much how it is spelled.

Empireoftheclouds · 06/06/2017 09:37

Mick aisle

Creatureofthenight · 06/06/2017 09:37

I've seen it spelt Mikhail more often, but it's not hard to figure out.

StealthPolarBear · 06/06/2017 09:36

olderthanyouthink · 06/06/2017 09:35

Mik-kyle
Or
Mik-i-el
or
Mikale

I don't hate it though I would fined it weird on a white British person, I think

HoratioNightboy · 06/06/2017 09:34

I wouldn't be able to take a stab at it without knowing the language it's from, but my first though was Mee-kyle.
