Michael = One who is like God.

Michael - 'Who resembles god'

I'm sorry but that is pure fucking awesome.
Unfortunately your names aren't quite that badass. It's a question, not a statement. Hebrew for "Who is like God?", the answer being "no one". Claiming to resemble God or to be like God would kind of fall under the category of blasphemy.

My name (Joseph) means Jehova increases. Apparently, I've got God on my side, so everybody else should do what I say.

Adam is a Hebrew name obviously and according to Wikkipedia and a few others, it means "Mankind" or just "First man" or "man"

Basically. I'm THE man.

Adam. Can mean, "Earth" or "Man", also can be a word referring to humans in general. I am as fundamentally cool as it gets.

Well.. From what I know, my name means "Creepy little child who is the son of satan and kills his mother"... At least, from the all knowing knowledge of the prejudiced people of Oklahoma.

If you can find another root for "Damion", lemme know.

The name is John.
My name means "Beloved Son of James".
Which is a reference to the Bible.
Which is made somewhat hilarious by the fact that I am not religious.
But I love the name John.
It sounds so odd to me, and that little "h" and that big "J" just seem like the perfect couple, but that whore "o" is with "J", because "J" didn't want to be alone in his life, so he goes with "o", when he should have waited to be with "h"....
And "n" watches by the sidelines as "J" slowly tears himself into pieces because "J" is a nice-guy letter, and everyone knows that nice-guy letters don't dump anyone at all. So "J" is with "o", while "h" and "n" watch by the sidelines, teary eyed...
I love rants.
see above^

and my last name means descendant of Brian Boru I'm sure you can figure this out once I say I'm Irish.

Daniel - got chucked in a Lion's den by the Romans for a giggle. Got out again. That's about it really. Well, I say that, but I reckon there's a bit missing from the bible where they stabbed him in with a gladius-can't imagine they let that one slide...
