Thoughts on this name

We're having a hard time coming up with a name for our baby boy.  DH mentioned the name Rhys (like Reese) which I'm not sure about.  What do you think?

    Love the name Rhys, I wish it sounded good with our last name. I'm a big fan of Welsh names in general.

    I don't like the spelling Rhys - I see it and think rhiz. I like the other spelling though.

    LOL. My DH is pretty good with names although he has a weird thing for the name Stan. I have no idea why.

    & OP, I love Rhys!

    That was my issue with the name as well but I find Reese looks girly.

    I love Rhys. I would not use the "Reece" or "Reese" spelling.  Rhys is great!

    It's okay I guess. 

    I think he'll have to tell people either how to pronounce it or spell it his entire life.

    Love it and I prefer Reese for a girl and Rhys for a boy for whatever reason. Wish I could use this name but it sounds awful with my last name. GL!

    This.  DH is Welsh and all the names on our list are Welsh.  Rhys is in our top three for boys.

    I love it but personally probably wouldn't use it right now due to all the little girl Reeses he will be in school with.

    I like Rhys a lot! He will probably have to spell his name to people, but I still think it's a good name.

    I would never use it due to personal associations, but the name itself is very nice.  Go with it!

    This makes me laugh.  Then, it makes me go, "Hey!  My fave uncle's name is Jerry!"  Although, his given name is Jerome.

    Thanks for the laugh, though.  :)

    Rhys is a great name.  I like it.
