Meaning & Origin
A diminutive of the male given name Mitchell.
Mitch is a boy's baby name of Hebrew origin, a familiar short form of Mitchell — derived from Michael, from the Hebrew Mikha'el, meaning 'who is like God?' Mitch has the casual, confident energy of a classic American nickname that stands perfectly well on its own.
With over 5,500 recorded U.S. births, Mitch is a name with real staying power — strong, no-nonsense, and carrying the quiet authority of someone who never needs to prove anything.
