Rhys or Reece?

blueskybride · February 2009

I think Rhys for a boy. Reese/Reece seems to have gone to the girls.

I like Rhys. It's not misspelled as many people claim (think Jonathan Rhys Meyers). I really wanted to use it as a middle name. Our last name starts with an "R," though, and it doesn't sound right together.

I love Rhys, but I'm a little Welsh. Also, Reese Witherspoon's name is Laura Jeanne Reese Witherspoon. Reese is her father's last name and Witherspoon is her mother's.

I like Rhys, but that's because that is our DS's mn. ?We thought the same thing about it looking more masculine. Do you have a mn picked out??

OMG, i truly hope you did not mean that in the way it sounded.

Seriously...

PunkyBooster:
I think Reece is more "Americanized" if that matters to you. If I saw Rhys on paper, I would assume the individual was probably from the motherland

Right, sorry i was meant to quote you on that before.

The above response was in response to this quote.

I'd go Rhys for a boy (the original Welsh spelling, I think) and Reece for a girl, like Ms. Witherspoon.

I see Rhys as being more masculine. Reece reminds me of Reece Witherspoon.
