It is most likely biblical in origin. The name "Rachel" is from an unused root meaning: "ewe, female sheep". Rachelson as a surname is likely to imply a identification with Rachel's sons with Jacob: Joseph meaning "Jehovah increases", and Benjamin meaning "son of the right hand; son of the south; son of my old age".
