Michael is not an angel. He is Christ Michael, the Sovereign of the Universe, who appeared on Earth as Jesus of Nazareth.
Gabriel is not an angel. He is Christ's "executive assistant".
Angels (cherubim and seraphim) are from the Holy Spirit which is the female principle and their main purpose is to help and guide us.
They do love us so much.

The Sacred Scriptures have revealed the proper names of only three Angels, all of whom belong to the Choir of the Archangels. The names are well known to all, namely: Michael, Gabriel, Raphael. Ancient apocryphal literature of the Old Testament contains several other names of Archangels in addition to the three just mentioned. Like the sources themselves, these other names are spurious. Names like Uriel, Raguel, Sariel, and Jeremiel are not found in the canonical books of Sacred Scripture, but in the apocryphal book of Enoch, fourth book of Esdras,[1] and in rabbinical literature. The Church does not permit proper names of Angels that are not found in the canonical books of the Bible. All such names that were taken from apocryphal writings were rejected under Pope Zachary, in 745. There must have been danger of serious abuses in this regard during that century, because a similar step was taken in a synod held at Aix-la-Chapelle in 789.

Lucifer was also an angel, God's favorite angel until he led an uprising and was then cast down by God.

Yes, like many other mythical creatures, angels have names. Sorry I can't give any, because I don't know any as they don't exist.
