    Rhymes with Paris. 

    LOVE it. If this baby was a girl, it would've been their name.

    Carys rhymes with Paris. It's a darling name - but I do think she'll have to correct people a lot. Wouldn't sway me from using it though!

    Care-iss.

    I think this is one of those names that is getting more mainstream.  Yes, people will mispronounce it sometimes.  But it won't be terrible.  I put it in the same category as Isla.

    Rhymes with Paris. I had a student with this name last year and loved it. I was on my list if this baby had been a girl.

    Our old neighbors have a little girl about 4 years old with that name. I would pronounce it care-iss. Pretty name.

    I say rhymes with Paris too. I like the name but there would probably be a lot of spelling issues, I wouldn't know how to spell it if someone said that name to me

    Yep I say Care-iss too.  When we were hunting for names abt 3 yrs ago for DD2 everyone was asking the same question! lol  It is on our list this time around also, so I think it is definitely getting more popular as someone else said.  But when I saw it the first time they had spelled it Charys, so I'm afraid ppl will mispronounce is Cherish or like Sha-reece still...
