[name_m]How[/name_m] do you feel about [name_f]Renee[/name_f] and [name_f]Ruth[/name_f]
What are some R name favorites
I love the vintage charm and Biblical history of [name_f]Ruth[/name_f]. [name_f]Renee[/name_f] is “dated” and is so mainstream it’s lost a lot of its [name_m]French[/name_m] charm for me. I much prefer the Italian [name_f]Renata[/name_f].
[name_f]My[/name_f] favourite “R” girl names are:
[name_f]Renata[/name_f] nn [name_u]Ren[/name_u]
[name_f]Rachel[/name_f]/[name_f]Raquel[/name_f]
Radha
[name_f]Raphaela[/name_f]/Raffaella
[name_f]Ramira[/name_f]
[name_f]Ramona[/name_f]
[name_f]Rhona[/name_f]
[name_f]Rhonwen[/name_f]
Reem
[name_f]Rochelle[/name_f]
[name_f]Riva[/name_f]
[name_f]Romilly[/name_f]
[name_f]Rosalind[/name_f]
[name_f]Rosamund[/name_f]
[name_f]Roisin[/name_f]
[name_u]Ruby[/name_u]
[name_f]Roxana[/name_f]
[name_f]Rosemary[/name_f]
[name_f]Rosalie[/name_f]
Rosabel
I know someone called [name_f]Ruth[/name_f], I used to be quite good friends with her. I suppose I’ve got a bit of a soft spot for the name. [name_f]Renee[/name_f] is okay, but I’m not a huge fan. [name_f]My[/name_f] favourite R names are (no pun intended):
Rowenna
[name_f]Reverie[/name_f] (bit of a GP)
[name_u]Rain[/name_u]
[name_f]Rhea[/name_f] ([name_u]Ray[/name_u]-a)
[name_u]Rue[/name_u]
[name_f]Rosalind[/name_f]
[name_f]Rosemarie[/name_f]
[name_u]Raven[/name_u]
[name_f]Roxanne[/name_f]
I really like [name_f]Ruth[/name_f]. If I were planing to use [name_f]Renee[/name_f], I would use it as a mn because it does come across as dated.
I actually like [name_f]Renee[/name_f] a lot. I don’t think it was ever widely used in the UK (I don’t know any) so it probably sounds less dated to me.
Another one I like which feels similar is [name_f]Rachel[/name_f].
[name_f]Ruth[/name_f] should technically be my style; I even know several little girls called [name_f]Ruth[/name_f] so the ‘old lady’ thing doesn’t really bother me (although I love the line in Friends ‘‘what about [name_f]Ruth[/name_f]?’’ ‘‘Oh, I’m sorry, are we having an 89-year-old?’’). I just find it really ugly.
I love;
[name_f]Raphaela[/name_f]
[name_f]Ramona[/name_f]
[name_u]Romy[/name_u]
[name_u]Rocio[/name_u]
[name_f]Rosemary[/name_f], [name_f]Rosa[/name_f], [name_f]Rosaline[/name_f]
[name_u]Ruby[/name_u]
[name_f]Rebecca[/name_f]
I like [name_f]Ruthie[/name_f]. I like [name_f]Ruth[/name_f] and [name_f]Renee[/name_f] in the middle.
I love [name_f]Ruth[/name_f]! It’s so beautiful. [name_f]Renee[/name_f] sounds nice, but a childhood bully ruined it for me.
I adore the name [name_f]Rosemary[/name_f]! It’s by far my favorite R name. I also like [name_f]Rose[/name_f]'s many other forms. As for non [name_f]Rose[/name_f] names, I like [name_f]Roxanne[/name_f]/[name_f]Roxanna[/name_f], [name_u]Ruby[/name_u], and [name_f]Ramona[/name_f].
I actually really like [name_f]Renee[/name_f]. I found it cute & refresh.
[name_f]Ruth[/name_f] was never my style. I actually find it more “old lady” than [name_f]Renee[/name_f].
[name_f]My[/name_f] favorite R names are, [name_f]Rosalie[/name_f] & [name_f]Reverie[/name_f].
I’m not a big fan of either, but between the two, I prefer [name_f]Ruth[/name_f]. Other R names I like:
[name_f]Reina[/name_f]
[name_u]Regan[/name_u]
[name_f]Rita[/name_f]
[name_u]Reese[/name_u]
[name_f]Rilla[/name_f]
[name_u]Reed[/name_u]
I like [name_f]Ruthie[/name_f]; there is a little girl at the preschool I work at with the name. [name_f]Renee[/name_f] is pretty, but dated.
[name_u]Reese[/name_u], [name_u]Remi[/name_u], [name_u]Rory[/name_u], [name_f]Reverie[/name_f], and [name_f]Rosie[/name_f] are my favorite names for girls that start with R. (Yes, many would argue that some of these names are for boys but it’s whatever) I have a ton of boy favorites that start with R. [name_m]Rhett[/name_m], [name_u]Riley[/name_u], [name_u]Rhys[/name_u], [name_u]Rowan[/name_u], [name_m]Rome[/name_m], [name_m]Ryker[/name_m], [name_u]Rylan[/name_u], [name_m]Rafferty[/name_m] 
I would probably like [name_f]Ruth[/name_f] if it wasn’t my mom’s step-mother’s name! [name_f]Renee[/name_f] has never been particularly exciting to me, but it’s alright. I like [name_u]Ruby[/name_u] and [name_f]Ramona[/name_f] and I knew a little girl named [name_f]Rhiannon[/name_f] once and she was so cute.
I love [name_f]Renee[/name_f], but not [name_f]Ruth[/name_f]. [name_f]Ruth[/name_f] is too old-fashioned for me. [name_f]Ruthie[/name_f] is cute, though. I like [name_u]Rhys[/name_u], [name_u]Ruby[/name_u], [name_u]Raven[/name_u], [name_m]Rafferty[/name_m], [name_m]Ramiro[/name_m], [name_u]Rio[/name_u], [name_u]Ryan[/name_u].
Personally, I don’t much like [name_f]Renee[/name_f] or [name_f]Ruth[/name_f]. [name_f]Renee[/name_f] seems dated and contrived, here in the States anyway. [name_f]Ruth[/name_f] still feels like it belongs to an older generation.
R names I like:
[name_f]Rachel[/name_f]
[name_f]Reina[/name_f]
[name_u]Ruby[/name_u]
[name_f]Romina[/name_f] ([name_u]Romy[/name_u] or [name_f]Mina[/name_f])
[name_f]Rose[/name_f]
[name_f]Rosamund[/name_f]
[name_f]Rosalie[/name_f]
[name_u]Rory[/name_u]
[name_m]Roland[/name_m]
[name_u]Reid[/name_u]
[name_m]Ronan[/name_m]
Ooh, I also love the sound of [name_u]Reagan[/name_u], but can’t shake the associations with The Exorcist and [name_m]Ronald[/name_m] [name_u]Reagan[/name_u] (shudders).
I keep seeing [name_f]Reverie[/name_f] on NB, and I can’t help but like its cadence and feel although it kind of falls in territory that is not my style.
