I much prefer Rachel. In fact, I prefer most names to Sarah, which bores me into a stupor. I always notice it, because I was almost named Sarah myself, after my paternal grandmother, who died before I was born. However, (a) my mother didn't much like her and (b) she had had two daughters herself and didn't use Sarah for either of them, fn or mn, so she presumably wasn't greatly impressed by it either.
