The Story Behind Raëlla
Raëlla is a modern name, likely a feminized form or elaboration of the Hebrew name Rahel (Rachel), meaning 'ewe'. The diaeresis over the 'e' (ë) is a stylistic addition, often used in French or other European languages to indicate that the vowel should be pronounced separately, rather than as part of a diphthong. This gives the name a slightly more exotic or refined appearance and pronunciation. While Rachel has ancient biblical roots, Raëlla itself does not have a long historical lineage and appears to be a more recent coinage.
