As I've mentioned before Raquel is a name that has been a favorite of mine since I first became interested in names. What do you think of the name, and what are some good middle names for Raquel? (For some reason I've had a harder time thinking of good middle names for this one than most of my other favorites.)

I like it a lot more than I like Rachel. More interesting and exotic. It does have a kind of cheap feeling to me, like Rockette or something, but not too strong.I think Raquel sounds more classy when paired witha Spanish last name. Which is why I don't think Raquel Welch is a very attractive combo. The el sounds collide. :)Raquel MariaRaquel LouiseRaquel NadineRaquel PatriciaRaquel SuzanneRaquel TheresaRaquel BriannaRaquel FaithRaquel Cherie
