Question

its for a tattoo

Answer 1

The name is originally from the Hebrew, and has close variations in many languages. Michel in French, Miguel in Spanish, Mikhail in Russian, Michael in Greek (mu, iota, chi, alpha, eta, lambda) - English uses the Latinized form of the name, which is Michael, or Michahel (used in the Latin Vulgate version of the Bible, Revelations{Apocalypse} 12:7).

Answer 3

The name is Hebrew for "being like God", which can be translated in Latin but maybe not into a single word/name.

Answer 4

If you mean proper Latin (as in the ancient language), the name is Michaèl.
In Italian is Michele, and in Spanish (latino) is Miguel.
Cheers!

Answer 5

No, I've never heard one - it means God like in Hebrew. Punch it in to your cell phone and have the number that comes up in the display tattooed on your wrist. When people ask tell them you were in a concentration camp - because you had trouble concentrating. You'll piss some people off, but you'll be amazed at how many people believe you.....

Answer 6

Michael or Míchaël

Answer 7

Some are saying that Michael means "being like god" for which the Latin would be "Deo similis". This could be reduced to a single word translation for "godlike" or "divine" which is "divinus"

But the sources I have checked give the meaning as a question "Who is like the Lord?" "Who is like God?"

The Latin in these cases would be "Quis Domino similis (est)? or "Quis Deo similis (est)?"

Or if you want "who is godlike?" "Quis divinus est?"

Miguel

Miguel

Nostril.... is english to latin. Don't suppose it's the sort of word you would want as a tattoo though. All the best
