3 Archangels: Michael, Gabriel, and Raphael (and sometimes Uriel is given as a fourth). Eastern Orthodox tradition mentions Seven Archangels. Uriel is included, and the other three are most often cited as Selaphiel, Jegudiel, and Barachiel.
Some people are going to say Lucifer (real name is Heylel) but the title of Archangel was bestowed after the fall of Lucifer. Source: Book of Enoch, Book of Isaih.
In Islam, the archangels are Michael or Mikael (Archangel of the Weather), Gabriel or Jibril (who brought the Koran to Muhammad), Azrael (Angel of Death), Israfil or Isra'afeel (Archangel who is to blow the horn on Judgement Day), Malik (Keeper of Hell) and Munkar and Nakir (Angels of Interrogation that will question deceased souls on their life before their death). Neither Israfil nor Azrael are mentioned in the Qu'ran.

The arc angels are the seraphim, the utmost point interior the angelic realm. 2nd is the cherubim, that have been people who guarded Eden after Adam and Eve have been evicted, and it replaced into additionally the cherubim that Ezekiel defined. The cherubim have certainly no longer something in elementary with the artwork of the lovable little overweight toddler angels, they're useful and somewhat frightening in accordance to Ezekiel, to no longer point out that being the guardians of Eden, they could desire to be enormously intimidating. The e book of Enoch is crammed with angelic advice, with names, descriptions, and so on.. this is an exceedingly interesting examine.

There is only one Archangel
ACCORDING to the Bible, there are millions of angelic creatures inhabiting the spirit realm. (Daniel 7:9, 10) From beginning to end, the Scriptures make hundreds of references to the angels that remain loyal to God. Yet, only two of these spirit creatures are mentioned by name. One is the angel Gabriel, who personally delivered messages from God to three different individuals over a period of some 600 years. (Daniel 9:20-22; Luke 1:8-19, 26-28) The other angel mentioned by name in the Bible is Michael.
Michael is clearly an outstanding angel. For example, in the book of Daniel, Michael is described as fighting wicked demons in behalf of Jehovah’s people. In the inspired letter of Jude, Michael confronts Satan in a dispute over Moses’ body. (Jude 9) The book of Revelation shows that Michael wars with Satan and his demons and hurls them out of heaven. No other angel is portrayed as having such great power and authority over God’s enemies. It is no wonder, then, that the Bible appropriately refers to Michael as “the archangel,” the prefix “arch” meaning “chief,” or “principal.”
Aside from Michael, no archangel is mentioned in the Bible, nor do the Scriptures use the term “archangel” in the plural. The Bible describes Michael as the archangel, implying that he alone bears that designation. Hence, it is reasonable to conclude that God has delegated to one, and only one, of his heavenly creatures full authority over all other angels.

The prefix "arch" meaning "chief" or "principal" implies that there is only one archangel,the chief angel,in the Scriptures."Archangel" is never found in the plural.
The only archangel mentioned in the Bible is Michael.
Gabriel is not called an archangel in the Bible.
The others that have been listed among the answers here are not even mentioned in the Scriptures.
