About the name Mekhi
Mekhi is a modern American coinage rather than a name found in the Hebrew Bible. It is sometimes explained as an elaboration of Micah, a Hebrew name meaning ‘who is like God?’, though no firm etymology has been established. The name came to wide attention through the American actor Mekhi Phifer, known for his roles in the film ‘Paid in Full’ and the television drama ‘ER’. Spellings such as Mekai and Mekhai follow the same pronunciation.
