The name Remi

MarisaC · September 2009

For a girl. What do you think?

JustSadie · September 2009

Yes

P.S. Your DD is sooooo cute!

caeliesmom · September 2009

Sorry, I only know two dogs with that name.

fruitslice · September 2009

NMS but still pretty cute.

MissFreo · September 2009

I like it, but prefer the spelling Remy

amoureux · September 2009

I don't like it.

First, I am from Quebec and Remi is firmly a boy's name. The pronounciation by english speakers will also be wrong.

It is also the name of a cognac.

barnwife · September 2009

It's definitely nms. I would keep looking.

Mrs.Biela2be · September 2009

I think it is a different name and interesting, though nms. I have a co-work with this name, but she spells it Remmy.

IncognitoWifey · September 2009

My cat's name is Remy. And my cat is a male.

rc1276 · September 2009

To be honest, all I can think of is the (male) rat from Ratatouille.

ara4488 · September 2009

I think of it as a boy's name.

For a girl = nms.

MarisaC · September 2009

It sounds so feminine for a boy to me. But I guess then it would be short for Remington which is nms.

Harms80 · September 2009

Isn't that the name of the boy mouse on Ratatouille? I have a friend with a son named Remington and they call him Remi. I'd keep looking...

SBma · September 2009

I like it. I think Remi Hadley (13) from House

Mrs_Springbride · September 2009

nms

TUGOsQueen · September 2009

I always liked Remington for either a boy or girl-- more for a boy though. Then I had a Remy in my class. Oh my.. what a piece of work. I wouldn't go there for a girl's name!! And as a fn not as a nn, it reminds me of cognac.

krissyh21 · September 2009

As a Red Sox fan all I can think about is the Rem Dog (Jerry Remy) and all the dogs in this area named after him!

oceangirl2007 · September 2009

I love it!

moseyma · September 2009

Sorry, it's all boy to me.

shopgirl_07 · September 2009

I think it's cute. But you should know that here in New England, former Red Sox player turned broadcaster Jerry Remy is INSANELY popular. He is a huge cult figure here and the "President" of Red Sox Nation. As there are a lot of Sox fans all over the country, I imagine you'll get a lot of Jerry Remy associations.

briannaj · September 2009

I personally think it's cute, but I like different names. Plus, I think your baby would make the name cute.

I have a cousin much younger than me, named Navy. At first I didn't care for the name very much, but the more I got to know it as a name for her, I loved it and I still do!!

loveyoubean · September 2009

It isn't Ava, Addison, Amelia, or any other super common name, which automaically puts it in my good graces. I am usually pretty picky with names, but I think this one is just darn cute!

Moesten · September 2009

Not so much for a girl.

hereandthere119 · September 2009

It's uncommon enough that the people who know your daughter will start to think of it as girlish. That being said, I've known two people with the name - both boys.

katie9136 · September 2009

i think its really cute actually.

fyi there is a female rapper named remy ma

SkiGirl1080s · September 2009

My former boss had two girls, Piper and Remy. I think both names are adorable.

timmylulu · September 2009

I love it for a girl...in fact I wouldn't name a boy that, it sounds way fem to me

MrsCFB · September 2009

ValentineBB · September 2009

All I can think of is the booze, Remy.

jcsntms06 · September 2009

Not my style.

I'm fine with it for a girl...is there a reason to spell it Remi instead of Remy? And would you pronounce it like the French, RAIM-EE?

FutureMrs.Steen · September 2009

I don't like it

ach427 · September 2009

SBma:

Me too. But before her, I had only considered it a boy name. And a very french one, at that.

magsugar13 · September 2009

I would not name my child after an alcoholic beverage.

Ditto! love it

OctoberCAPA · September 2009

I do not like it with any spelling or pronunciation.

Brilanea · September 2009

Remi is my grandfather's name...I've never thought of it for a girl but i LOVE the idea of it for a girl! Super cute!

This. Totally a boy's name where I come from.

newportbride715 · September 2009

It could grow on me... I like Romy better.

EmmaBrooke · September 2009

Maybe I've been listening to too much rap, but all I can think of is Remi Martin... the cognac.

lilduff02 · September 2009

The name is cute but I work in anesthesia and one of the very potent narcotics we used is called remi-fentanyl and we call it remi for short. So I guess your baby would share a name with booze and narcotics...haha.
