  Not a fan. It's screams gun toting red neck to me. 
  
  I love Rory which is kinda similar in feel

  Not a fan. I agree it’s a bit redneck, but I can get over Remington nn Remy. But with an “I” ending and all the people who have now named girls Remy/Remington, it also now is super trendy

  Thanks ladies - these were the exact comments I was expecting to hear so you’ve definitely confirmed my concerns. Thanks for the honesty!

  Remy is one of my guilty pleasure names for a boy  that I could never pull the trigger on. I don't like the trend of Remi girls.

  Remy should only be spelled with a y. 
  
  And is the name of the hottest X-Men, so I love it even though some trashy people use it as a nn for Remington

  If you choose it, go with Remy. Remi is all girl to me.

  I actually do not find it redneck. I like it but it reminds me of the old rapper Remi Ma, and thats why i would avoid it. 
  
  But its still cute.
  
  
  ETA- just noticed you said Boy. I definitely find it a girl name.

  I like Remy and don't think it's redneck at all. I do not like the Remi spelling though.

  Remy is adorable. Go for it! 
  I don't find it redneck at all and it goes good.

  With Remi, all I can think of is the movie Ratatouille. How about:
  
  Neil
  Grant
  Eli
  Ian
  Finn
  Noel
  Pierce
  Sam
  Luke

  Interesting comments about the Y spelling...I’ve only ever met one Remi/Remy in my entire life and he spelt it with an I so I guess that’s where I got the spelling from. 
  
  I also had no idea it had become such a popular girl’s name. 
  
  I really appreciate everyone’s comments and other suggestions! Keep them coming!

  @cantrellja I love the name Pierce and think it goes so nicely with Reid but I can’t get DH on board with it.

  It feels incomplete to me.  I also think that it's too similar to Reid.
  
  Other ideas:
  Conner
  Craig
  Donovan
  Duncan 
  Forrest 
  Graham 
  Jacques 
  Jay
  Jerome 
  Kenneth
  Liam
  Patrick 
  Nelson
  Seth
  Sinclair

  Honestly I don't like it and I don't feel it blends well with Reid. 
  Dane, Carson, Griffin, Miles, Spencer, Asher, Everett, Simon, Sawyer?

  My oldest two boys are Reed and Pierce.  Our youngest DS is Grant.  So maybe you would like Grant?

  I like Remy for a boy but only spelled with a "y". It isn't on my short list, but it is on my medium list.
