Who was the first quirky young independent urban professional female character in television or movies? Where did characters with personalities like Rachel come from?

She wasn't quirky, in fact was often straight-woman to the quirkiness of Monica and Phoebe, and wasn't a professional (she's a waitress)
OP's a dummy.

Rachel was quirky too in comparison to the female archetypes that came before. She was scatter brained.

She's a waitress in only the first season.

oh...well that would be Leela from Dr Who, I'd visit her after Mary. Then off to visit Dune-era Virginia Madsen.

She's an early example but is she the very first?

Monica and Phoebe are neurotic and spacey. Not quirky. Quirky is a milder thing.

Now this is a good example. Diane is definitely in the same vein, and she was part of when these characters started getting to be the standard for women in television comedies.
