[Opinions] Rachael
What do you think of this biblical name? This is my name of the moment. It's on my list and I am looking for the right middle name to liven it up a bit. Please help!

I don't like it. My name is Rachel, and I hate that to begin with. Then when it's spelled in a different way, it annoys me. I feel like Rachel has a set personality (like all the Rachels/Rachaels I know (except me) have the same exactly personality). Plus it's really really popular at my school (so it might, at least in my area, date a bit to the 90s). Like people were signing up to do extra credit for my English class and on the board (of 3 classes) there were 6 Rach(a)els, then there are all the ones that didn't sign up.And I feel like Rachel is one of the most common names of this forum. I know that there are like at least 4 with the Rachel spelling and a few with the Rachael spelling.But, yeah. I don't like it at all. Plus it sounds like "racial", which is a word that can be used very negatively.

I love Rachel, but not Rachael. It looks messy and wrong, the A is unnecessary, and it makes me want to say rach-AYL.

I absolutely love Rachel, but not Rachael. The extra 'a' just seems unnecessary. In Hebrew, the name is pronounced 'rah-KHEHL' and Rachel is the spelling that most closely reflects that. Rachael looks all wrong to me.Rachael Angelina

I'm sorry but I hate it spelled Rachael. I think it looks so ugly. Rachel is much nicer, in my opinion.

DH Thinks so too. I have a good friend who spells it Rachael and that is why I posted it that way. ^_^
