US Popularity Rank: 12106

Origin: German

Meaning: Ewe, female sheep; Mighty; Queen

You’ve added a new member to your royal household, so why not bestow a royal name? Raynelle is a feminine name of Hebrew, German, and Latin origin. As a possible derivation of Rachel or Rae, combined with the suffix -elle, the name has a meaning of “ewe” or “female sheep.” It is also a possible variation of Raina, a German-rooted name that means “mighty,” or the Latin Regina, which means “queen.” All of these meanings together culminate in a distinguished and poetic choice. PLus, nicknames like Ray, Rayn, and Nellie are going to help baby stick out from the flock!
