Significance in the name...

"... I have called you by your name: I have surnamed you, though you have not known me." -Isaiah 45:4

Angel Rafa Crasto

A new baby on the way is a time for stress, anxiety, and excitement. You wouldn't think something so small could cause so prodigious an amount of chaos in so short a period of time, but as every parent knows, a new baby takes a lot of preparation. Amidst all the flurry of changes - baby clothes, and other items to obtain - parents can sometimes forget about one of the most important things a baby needs: The baby's name.

A baby's name is your child's identity. Angel's name is indeed inspired by God.

ANGEL (esparansa’s choice) is of Greek origin, and its meaning is "messenger of God".

RAFA (dad''s choice). The name Rafa is of Arabic origin, and its meaning is "well-being/ prosperity/happiness".

Rafa is a very rare female name, derived from dad's late father RAFAel.

Rafael is an archangel of GOD.

The Biblical and Hebrew meaning of Rafa is:
Jehovah Rafa- GOD the Healer
