I don't really see the point...

If you simply wand to create your own macro calling you plugin method
you can do:
#macro(myfunction $param1)
  xwiki.myplugin.function($param1)
#end

then

#myfunction("Mikhael")


You can also store the plugin interface in a variage then call the method:
#set($myplugin = xwiki.myplugin.function("Mikhael"))
$myplugin.function("Mikhael")

By the way calling methods from plugin directly using
xwiki.myplugin.function() is not recommended (especially if you use
the plugin in more than one place in the same document) as any time
you call xwiki.myplugin a new plugin API instance is created.
