[[Rashi]] gives a long note to the effect that [[Michaiah]] was called Maachah after the name of her daughter-in-law, the mother of Asa, who was a woman of renown, and that her father's name was Uriel Abishalom. There is no indication, however, that Absalom, like Solomon, had another name, although in the [[Targum]] of R.
