Please I am begging you. Please look up the origin of a name before adding it. I'm trying to have as few roles as possible and half of all names come from "John" somehow. A GREAT SOURCE IS BEHINDTHENAME.COM. Very easy to use!!read more

Fan Casting Rachel / רָחֵל(Rachael, Racheal, Rachelle, Rae, Richelle, Rachyl, Rahel, Raquel, Raschelle)

Description of Rachel / רָחֵל (Rachael, Racheal, Rachelle, Rae, Richelle, Rachyl, Rahel, Raquel, Raschelle):

From the Hebrew name רָחֵל (Rachel) meaning "ewe". In the Old Testament this is the name of the favourite wife of Jacob. The name was common among Jews in the Middle Ages, but it was not generally used as a Christian name in the English-speaking world until after the Protestant Reformation. It was moderately popular in the first half of the 20th century, but starting in the 1960s it steadily rose, reaching highs in the 1980s and 90s. The character Rachel Green on the American sitcom Friends (1994-2004) may have only helped delay its downswing.
