Boy Names

I know this has been posted before but I would like some current opinions on the spelling
[name_u]Reid[/name_u] /[name_u]Reed[/name_u] and why (if you have a reason)

Thanks for your help!

I prefer [name_u]Reid[/name_u], I just think it looks more like a name spelled this way if that makes sense lol. [name_u]Love[/name_u] the name!

3

I’m the same way - [name_u]Reid[/name_u] looks like a name whereas [name_u]Reed[/name_u] makes me think of the word. I really like [name_u]Reid[/name_u].

4

I agree with the pp’s as well. [name_u]Reid[/name_u] looks much more appealing.

I have loved [name_u]Reid[/name_u] since I was a child, so I slightly prefer that spelling. I love the [name_u]Reed[/name_u] spelling because it becomes a nature name. I think you cannot go wrong with either spelling. I think it is a personal preference.

6

I also prefer the [name_u]Reid[/name_u] spelling, purely because I like the look of it more. But [name_u]Reed[/name_u] is also very charming and the ties to nature are always a plus in my book!

I like the nature connection of [name_u]Reed[/name_u], but for some reason I prefer the look [name_u]Reid[/name_u] as well.

I prefer [name_u]Reed[/name_u].
