Lifutushi u want to confirm the name yes his name is Mikal or mikaeel actually. They are mentioned in surat baqarah:
"Whoever is an enemy to Allah, His Angels, His Messengers, Jibrael (Gabriel) and Mikael (Michael), then verily, Allah is an enemy to the disbelievers." (Quran 2:98)
The reason Allah Is Saying whoever is an enemy to Allah, then He mentioned angles then specifically named Jibrael and Mikael, because the jews asked the Messenger (SAW) who brings down Quran to him, and when they found out it was Jibrael they said he is our enemy if it was Mikael we would follow u. Because Jibrael was responsible by Allah's commande to enforce punishments on whole cities and towns.
