Comment left Jul 05, 2008: "I'm Rachael and I love my name! Other comments are right, it's timeless and can't be pinned down to one time period. I knew loads of Rachel's when in high school and was sooo pleased with my unique extra A! Takes some people a while to learn to spell it, but that's prob why I love it! It's unique, and it's a gorgeous name." (Report as inappropriate)

Comment left Jun 18, 2008: "My name is Rachel and I hate it. Please do not name your child Rachel. It is quite possibly the lamest baby name there is. It's VERY common. Ever since Kindergarten, there's been at least 2 people in my class with the name Rachel. I'm a very unique person and my name does not describe me at all. I prefer to go by Rae, which isn't much better, but at least a little less common." (Report as inappropriate)
Comment left Jun 16, 2008: "My Name Is Rachael, yep with an A, there is 3 rachel's in my grade. and i am the only one that spells it Rachael. most people know my name is spelled different but they spell it like this RACHEAL,Or Rachel. It Kinda Gets Annoying That They Don;t Know The Spelling. aLOT OF people call me rach,rachie,ray,or just rachael ( which i prefur ) its a great name," (Report as inappropriate)

Comment left May 07, 2008: "I'm a Rachel and I worked with a Ruth - people always called us by the other person's name, I've no idea why. My parents named me for the Rachel in the Bible." (Report as inappropriate)
Comment left Apr 30, 2008: "My name is Raechel, pronounced like the name Rachel. I love my name but I find it quite annoying trying to teach people how to spell or pronounce my name. For nicknames, I get Rae, Rach, Rachie. I know quite a few people with my name but not spelt the same way." (Report as inappropriate)
Comment left Apr 26, 2008: "I love my name because it does not really have a time period, like the names Tara or Shannon remind me of the 80's. I love my name because it is so simple and still not very common and really is almost modern all the time!I will be 30 this year and I love when I still here this name being used today on new little girls coming into the world.Like I said it's just simple." (Report as inappropriate)
Comment left Apr 20, 2008: "My husband and I are going to name our baby girl Rachel. We found the name out of the bible and we both really like it. It is a strong name, it's a pretty name as well. You don't hear the name very often. I've only known one girl who had the name Rachel, which was when I was in elementary school. I have a friend her name is Raschel, pronounced as (ra-shell)."

Comment left Apr 14, 2008: "My name is Rachael, yes spelled that way (go all you with the extra A!) It's a really pretty name, i love it so much, and i don't think that even Rachel is all that common. There are two rachel's in my grade and then me. One of the Rachel's tries to spell her name like mine, and I think that's annoying." (Report as inappropriate)

Comment left Apr 01, 2008: "Named my daughter RACHAEL after her great-grandmother. I inserted the letter "A" in the spelling to resemble biblical angel names - like Michael & Rafael, and to modify the word "ache" in the traditional spelling. Her friends sometimes call her "Rach" which I'm not wild about, but she thinks is fine. I love saying her name... because it's her." (Report as inappropriate)
Comment left Mar 30, 2008: "My name is spelled RachEAL and I have never met someone with that spelling before. Like the other posts I have read, I have had problems with people always spelling my name wrong, and even saying it wrong! But I love my name because it sounds so intellectual and it makes me feel beautiful!" (Report as inappropriate)
