favorite names that begin with R?

jhb619 · May 2012

I want to honor the memory of a family member who recently passed away. I don't intend to use her name, but I'd like the baby's name to begin with the first initial "R". Any good suggestions? We tend to like more traditional names. DH loves the name Rebecca, but I just can't get into it for some reason. Boy or girl names are welcome -- we're still team green.

I love Rosalie and Ramona for girls. My mom's name is Rhea (Ree-uh NOT Ray).

Robert is probably the only R name for a boy that I like.

Thanks everyone!

I love Ruby and Roxanna, but DH hates them both. I have a cousin Rachel, so that's out. I'm fairly convinced I'm having a girl, so I haven't thought too much about boys names, but I really like Ryan.

Rachel and Ryan are my niece and newphew's names! Such a cute sibset. :-)

I really like Rowan, Reid, and Reese.

Rhett!

For girls, I like Ruby and all "Rose" names. Particularly Rose on it's on.

I really love Rebecca. Becca is the cutest nickname and it's such a classic. She'll likely be the only one in her class. I would try that out for a few days, see if you like it.

Anyhow, I love Rosemary, Rosalie and Ruby for girls

Raphael, Reese, Reid and Roman for boys.
