The Bible only names one Archangel, Michael, although it is generally stated that there are three - the others being Gabriel and Lucifer, now Satan. There are others in the Apocryphal writings of certain branches of Christianity.

Jude 1:9New International Version (NIV)

9 But even the archangel Michael, when he was disputing with the devil about the body of Moses, did not himself dare to condemn him for slander but said, "The Lord rebuke you!"

Gabriel is generally associated with being the deliverer of critical messages from God. He, therefore, is considered by some to be this unnamed archangel:

1 Thessalonians 4:16New International Version (NIV)

16 For the Lord himself will come down from heaven, with a loud command, with the voice of the archangel and with the Trumpet call of God, and the dead in Christ will rise first.

Lastly, as both Gabriel and Michael are mentioned as being at either side of God's Throne, the then angel Lucifer was said to be above the Throne. Therefore, he was considered an archangel who is now the 'Adversary.'
