Raul

US Popularity Rank: 1220

Origin: British

Meaning: Wolf counsel

Dapper and debonair, baby Raul will be able to charm his way out of any trouble. This boy's name has Spanish roots, but is derived from the Old English name Ralph which means "wolf counsel." It's also related to the French name Raoul, which holds a similar appeal. No doubt a lot of this name's allure can be attributed to Puerto Rican actor Raul Julia, who played the pencil-mustached Gomez Addams in the Addams Family movies of the 90s.
