The classic Polish form of this name is Michalina, and there are 43558 women named this in the whole Polish population. But Michelle has also been used, especially in the recent years, although not very often and there are 1778 women with this name here. There are also 776 women named Michaela (mee-hah-E-lah), and 429 people named Michele. Michelle for Poles seems to be perceived as a very modern, foreign version of a classic name and many people perceive it as snobbish. A Michelle can go by the same nicknames as Michalina - which may include Misia, Miśka, Michasia, Misza, Miszka, Misiunia, Michałka etc. - although the only Michelle I know (in her early 20's) usually goes either by her full name or by Miszelka (mee-SHEL-kah) which I personally find very charming. Miszelka sounds very much like muszelka - which means a sea shell - and I've heard some people calling her Muszelka (moo-SHEL-kah) as well, which I personally think is even better. A Michelle could have her name day together with Michał, which could be April 10 or September 29, or probably some other dates. Last year (2018) there were 2692 baby Michalinas born in Poland (#24, very popular lately), 21 Michelles (#232), and 5 Michaelas #434).

In 2018, 41 is the most common age for an American (U.S.) Michelle who is registered female with the Social Security Administration. It is the 49th most common female first name for living U.S. citizens.

In france it's a very old fashioned name.

This name is also commonly used in the Netherlands. [noted -ed]

My name is Michelle and I think it's a very trendy name that has now died out. It rose after the Beatles' song came out and went during the nineties.
