Micah was once my favourite boy name.
It's no longer my favourite, but I still adore it.
It's certainly a positive name, imo.
I prefer it to Micaiah (though I also like Micaiah) simply because it seems less Bible thumping (if that makes sense).

I used to like Micah in a set with Asher and Josiah, but Josiah is too religiously tied too, I think now.

MICAH!!! Okay, squeal over. I really like Micah though. Micaiah is alright, but I think it looks more awkward. I also know a Micah, so that helps a little.

It's fine. Positive.

I like Micaiah better because my buddy Micaiah would kill me if I didn't chose his name.

Both are nice names...

...though not my style. I think I'm leaning toward Micah today, but tomorrow might be different.

Positive and I prefer Micah by far.

Micah is one of those names I want to like, but I don't. For some reason I have a hard time imagining a grown man named Micah.

Leaning towards the negative. It sounds similar to Michael, which I dislike, and it also sounds whiny to me.

I like it for a girl, strangely. I used for the main character in my novel but didn't suit her and it was becoming popular. prefer simpler spelling.

Positive.

It's a quirky name. I like quirky.

I prefer Micah to Micaiah.

Very positive.

I love Micah. The name is sweet and handsome. It evokes a toe-headed little boy with the best "please" and "thank you" manners an "old-timer" like me could ever ask for. I like Micaiah, too, but I've always heard it pronounced "mick-HIGH-ah" (or the like). Micah seems more usable to me as a first name or a middle name. Micaiah fits the middle name slot (off-beat, quirky-ish). I would love to have two little boys named Noah and Micah. Yes, they're a bit matchy but I love it.
