Raquela

Why not choose the charming name Raquela for the newest lamb in your flock? Raquela is a Spanish and Portuguese variation of the French name Raquel, both of which come from the Hebrew name Rachel or Rahel, meaning "ewe" or "female sheep." In the Old Testament, Rachel was the beloved second wife of Jacob and likely got her name from her role as a shepherdess—a family tradition that made her name all the more fitting. Raquela is popular in Spanish and Portuguese-speaking countries like Brazil and Mexico, and it is a lovely choice if your little one is simply as sweet as a baby lamb!
