I like [name_u]Rhys[/name_u] because anglicized spellings can seem offensive, seconded by [name_u]Reese[/name_u]. [name_u]Reece[/name_u] just looks weird to me and reminds me of [name_f]Star[/name_f] Wars.

I agree with this. I think [name_u]Rhys[/name_u] looks cool, but isn’t super intuitive on pronunciation for me. Like I logically know it is supposed to be pronounced like [name_u]Reese[/name_u], but in my head I go through Reez, [name_u]Rice[/name_u], Riss, Rye-s…

For me [name_u]Rhys[/name_u] is male and [name_u]Reese[/name_u] is feminine :slight_smile: so those are my preferences based on gender. [name_f]My[/name_f] favourite is [name_u]Rhys[/name_u] as it’s the original Welsh.

I usually don’t go for the more likely to be confusing spellings, but I think on a boy [name_u]Rhys[/name_u] just looks the most masculine whereas [name_u]Reese[/name_u] looks more feminine, and [name_u]Reece[/name_u] just looks weird

[name_u]Rhys[/name_u] for me. [name_u]Reese[/name_u] just reminds me of the candy brand, and [name_u]Reece[/name_u] has never felt right to me. All are totally valid spellings, though!
