Subject: Rachel/Rachael

What more can you tell me about the name Rachel besides what's on this database? I've tried doing internet searches, but there's too much information on the web, and I haven't been able to fine-tune my searches enough to get any really useful information.

Also, one site (http://www.geocities.com/edgarbook/names/r/rachel.html) seems to be saying that Rachael is the Hebrew form; that's not right, is it?

I'm not sure exactly what information I'm looking for, though. Maybe, what element of the name acutally means 'ewe'? Are there any other meanings for it? Or... I'll take any information you can give me.

Thank you ever so much!!!

~ Rae
