Meaning & Origins
Mainly Australian: probably originally a short form of Rachel, but now generally taken as a feminine form of Ray or Raymond, or simply a derivative of ray meaning ‘sunbeam’. In some cases it may be a transferred use of the Scottish surname Rae, originally either a short form of MacRae (from a Gaelic personal name meaning ‘son of grace’) or a nickname from the roebuck. It is often used in combinations such as Rae Ellen and Mary Rae.
