Names can have many different origins and meanings, and why a certain name is chosen is unique for each individual. Following are the meaning's I've found for Hunter's name. Reources: Behind the Name.



PAUL m English, French, German, Romanian, Biblical

From the Roman family name Paulus, which meant "small" or "humble" (Latin). Saint Paul was an important leader of the early Christian church, his story told in Acts in the New Testament. He was originally named Saul, but changed his name after converting to Christianity. Most of the epistles in the New Testament were authored by him. This was also the name of six popes. Famous bearers of this name in the art world include Paul Cezanne and Paul Gauguin, both 19th-century impressionist painters from France.



MICHAEL m English, German, Czech, Biblical

From the Hebrew name Mikha'el meaning "who is like God?". This was the name of one of the seven archangels in Hebrew tradition and the only one identified as an archangel in the Bible. In the Book of Revelation in the New Testament he is portrayed as the leader of heaven's armies, and thus is considered the patron saint of soldiers. This was also the name of eight Byzantine emperors and a czar of Russia. Other more modern bearers of this name include Michael Faraday, a chemist and physicist who did important work in magnetism and electricity in the 19th century, and basketball player Michael Jordan.
