Michelle is a name created in French as a feminine form of Michel ( = Michael). A more usual spelling in French is Michele with a grave accent on the first e.
Michael is derived from Hebrew and means 'Who is like the Lord?' (Source: 'Oxford Dictionary of Christian Names')

Michelle is French and is the feminine counterpart of Michel, which is the French way of saying Michael. Michael is the name of St. Michael the Archangel from the Bible (מיכאל). His name comes, like all the angels in the Bible, from the world meaning Lord (El) and another attribute of God (the other angels mentioned in the Bible are Raphael and Gabriel). Michael means "Who is like God?" and was said to have been an angelic war cry (thus Michael is the patron saint of warriors). But it literally means "God's likeness"

I was half right, it is the female form of Michael, but means "Who is like God". French/Hebrew origins.
