Rory Vs. Remy... I need your thoughts

I see [name_u]Remy[/name_u] as a boys name due to [name_u]Remy[/name_u] Labeau (Gambit from X-Men) and Ratatouille, so my choice is [name_u]Rory[/name_u] by default.
I think [name_u]Rory[/name_u] is a standard nickname for [name_f]Aurora[/name_f] and [name_f]Lorelei[/name_f] so I can see [name_u]Rory[/name_u] as a standalone name for a female.

I must say though, [name_f]Esme[/name_f] is a gorgeous name and it is one of my top picks as well.
[name_m]Even[/name_m] though I know it isn’t an option, my vote goes to [name_f]Esme[/name_f] as it is a gorgeous name.
Maybe Esmeree or Esmerie?

[name_f]Emmeline[/name_f] or [name_f]Emmanuelle[/name_f] or [name_f]Emmy[/name_f]-[name_u]Lou[/name_u] for [name_f]Emmy[/name_f].
I prefer [name_f]Emmy[/name_f] to [name_u]Rory[/name_u] or [name_u]Remy[/name_u]

[name_m]How[/name_m] about these with nn [name_f]Emmy[/name_f]?
[name_u]Ember[/name_u]
[name_u]Artemis[/name_u]
[name_f]Clementine[/name_f]
[name_f]Emerald[/name_f]
[name_f]Emily[/name_f]
[name_f]Noemi[/name_f]

Some are a bit of a stretch and I’m not sure if they are your style at all?

[name_u]Ember[/name_u] is actually one of my old friend’s choices for a girl, if they ever have one. The names on this list that are my style are [name_u]Ember[/name_u] and [name_u]Artemis[/name_u], but my boyfriend would never approve of those. His taste is very simple which can be frustrating! Thanks for the suggestions though. I think if we did use [name_f]Emmy[/name_f] as a nickname, it would be for [name_f]Gemma[/name_f], if I could convince him of [name_f]Gemma[/name_f] in the first place. But then again [name_f]Gemma[/name_f] is so beautiful I probably would never have a nickname for it! :slight_smile:

[name_u]Remy[/name_u] is ok, but not beautiful to me. [name_u]Rory[/name_u] is beautiful to me b/c I think of [name_u]Rory[/name_u] from the [name_m]Gilmore[/name_m] Girls. Watch an episode of that show and you won’t think it is hard to say. I also love unisex names on girls and my daughter has one too. You said you like [name_f]Luna[/name_f], what about [name_f]Nova[/name_f]? Those two names remind me of each other. [name_f]My[/name_f] friend named her baby that and my friend is cool and stylish. I think that fits with a name like [name_u]Rory[/name_u] and [name_u]Remy[/name_u], maybe you’d like it too?

I prefer [name_u]Remy[/name_u] by far. I think [name_u]Remy[/name_u] [name_f]Olivia[/name_f] is beautiful. I’m not a fan of [name_u]Rory[/name_u], although the idea of using it as a nickname for [name_f]Victoria[/name_f] is interesting. Some other names to consider:

[name_u]Regan[/name_u] (pronounced [name_f]REE[/name_f]-gan)
[name_u]Reeve[/name_u]
[name_f]Rilla[/name_f]
[name_f]Reina[/name_f]

[name_u]Remy[/name_u] is cuter to me than [name_u]Rory[/name_u]. I can’t even say [name_u]Rory[/name_u] without really concentrating.

I know that there is a male golfer names [name_u]Rory[/name_u], so I’d stray from it for a girl, even though it is unisex

To me [name_u]Rory[/name_u] is all boy, but I absolutely adore [name_u]Remy[/name_u]. I think [name_u]Remy[/name_u] [name_f]Olivia[/name_f] is dead cute. I can’t ever imagine [name_u]Rory[/name_u] on a girl.
