The name "Melchior" is not in The Bible, and didn't become part of Catholic tradition until the middle ages.
This term was given to one of the 'Magi" (often called: '3 kings' or 'wise men') who visited Jesus sometime after his birth(Matthew 2:1+7 LB). Nowhere in the Bible, however, are we told the NUMBER or NAMES of these visitors. Ancient historians Justin Martyr, Origen, and Tertullian understood them to be a group of "astrologers"(not kings), the term 'magi' being related to the English "Magician".
