The word “remedy” came up in a book I was reading recently, and I actually love it for a boy’s name. Thoughts?

I like it! It has a nice meaning and sounds, even if I probably wouldn’t use it.

It’s nice! It sounds familiar thanks to its similarities to names like [name_u]Remy[/name_u], and the word isn’t a negative association. I’d personally keep it in the middle, I do think it’d be a brave choice as a first!

I think it is too “cold remedy” or any other ailment as that is the first thing that came to mind so not a pleasant association IMO. Sorry.

Interesting choice. Not sure I’d ever use
It but as others say it has close ties and potential nn of [name_u]Remy[/name_u] so I kinda like it! [name_m]How[/name_m] have we not heard that name before.

This is my daughters name! 
We get tons of compliments on it.
Edit to add: Remedios is used in Spanish speaking regions as a name and has been for some time.
It’s sweet! I like the nn [name_u]Remy[/name_u] as well.
Nope, makes me think of cough syrup.

I prefer just [name_u]Remy[/name_u] but Remedy is interesting and has a nice flow and meaning
I like the sound, but I can’t help thinking of medicine and illness. I think it would be hard IRL. I like @Greyblue’s suggestion of [name_u]Remy[/name_u], though!

Sorry, I can only think about medicines…
It’s an interesting name! I like the nickname [name_u]Remy[/name_u].
Personally, I don’t like it. It’s associated very heavily with medicines, which puts me off the name itself.
It makes me think of drugs for some reason 
I’m not keen makes me think of old housewife remedies to get rid of colds that my Jewish Grandma would make & taste horrible!
