While I love the classic spelling Michaela, in a way I like this spelling even more, since it's exclusively Scandinavian in origin, and I love the Scandinavian pronunciation mee-ka-E-lah, as opposed to English mi-KAY-luh which I hate, not to mention all the Mckayla spellings which I find not particularly aesthetically pleasing personally. When I think about a person called Mikaela, I imagine someone very similar to what I see when I think of a Michaela, I think I wrote about that in the comments for Michaela. So, I think she has long, dark brown hair, slightly lighter skin tone than Michaela, very dark blue eyes with long eyelashes. She is tall and slender, looks feminine and gentle but at the same time there's a lot of strength in the way she looks. I don't know anyone with this name, this is just an imagining of how I think a Mikaela might be like, and not how I think all people with this name are or should be like.
I think it would be nice to pronounce this name mi-KIE-la (for a girl) and call her Aela (IE-la) for short. I like the combinations Mikaela Summer and Mikaela Grace.

In my personal opinion, Mikaela can also be a masculine name, I love the sound of it on a boy, but only when it's pronounced "Mi-KIE-luh".
The name Mikaela gives me the impression of being refined and respected.

I love this name - so much so, that I chose it for my only daughter, Mikaela. We went with the Scandinavian spelling, so that she would hopefully avoid the people that pronounce the classic spelling "Michael-uh". We also liked some of the newer spellings that have modernized the name, such as Makayla and Mikayla, but eventually Mikaela won our hearts with its streamlined look, Scandinavian spelling and distinction. We love the Swedish pronunciation as well, and since our family is quite international, we wanted a name that sounded good in many languages. We love the name and its meaning: "Gift from God". Our daughter suits the name perfectly.
I never liked this name much until I met a Mikaela. This year she'll be a seventh grader and she is so freaking cute it's ridiculous! Because of her, I always think of a cute little girl when I hear this name.
Mikaela is my name and I never liked it growing up, because it was uncommon and people had difficulty pronouncing it, and it looked awkward to me, although most people I've met (including the two other Mikaela/Michaelas) I know like the name.
