Behind the Name: Meaning, Origin and History of the Name Raphael
From the Hebrew name רָפָאֵל](Transcribe - Behind the Name) (Rafa’el) which meant “God has healed”. In Hebrew tradition Raphael was the name of one of the seven archangels. He appears in the Old Testament in the Book of Tobit, where it is told how he aided Tobias. This name has never been common in the English-speaking world, though it has been well-used elsewhere in Europe. A famous bearer was the 16th-century Renaissance master Raphael Sanzio (usually known simply as Raphael).

according to Wiki:
Raphael (archangel) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia – read this, SO COOL.
Raphael (Standard Hebrew רָפָאֵל, Rāp̄āʾēl, “It is God who heals”, “God Heals”, “God, Please Heal”, Arabic: رافائيل, Rāfāʾīl) is the name of an archangel of Judaism, Christianity and Islam, who performs all manner of healing.
