Detailed Slovak etymology analysis
Meno Ráchela je slovenskou podobou hebrejského mena Ráchel (רָחֵל, rāḥēl), ktorého význam je „ovca“, prípadne „bahnica“. Ide o biblické meno: Ráchel bola Jakubovou manželkou a matkou Jozefa a Benjamína. Symbolické významy ako nevinnosť či miernosť vychádzajú z neskoršej kultúrnej interpretácie, nie z doslovného významu mena.
