Origin and meaning of Rachele

Rachele comes from the Hebrew Raḥel, 'ewe', a symbol of gentleness: in the Bible she is Jacob's beloved wife and mother of Joseph and Benjamin, a figure of grace and devotion. Rooted in Jewish and Christian culture, it keeps a warm, classic tone in Italy; the English Rachel and Spanish Raquel make it familiar across the West.
