Michele ({{IPA|it|miˈkɛːle|pron}}) is an Italian male given name, akin to the English male name Michael.

Michele (usually pronounced {{IPAc-en|m|ᵻ|ˈ|ʃ|ɛ|l}} {{respell|mish|EL}}), is also an English female given name that is derived from the French Michèle. It is a variant spelling of the more common (and identically pronounced) name Michelle. Michele can also be a surname.

The names are ultimately derived from the Hebrew מִיכָאֵל, through the Greek Μιχαήλ and the Latin Michael meaning "Who is like God?".
