Remy..

[CinderellaRach]

Finally found the name I love for ds2 due in less than 4 mnths.Have an Ellis James already.Was thinking Remy (pronounced Remmy).Does anyone know a Remy?

[ChoreDodger]

Is it for a boy? I think it's a feminine sound. It might grow on me.

[belgo]

Only in France.

[salander]

i know a french boy Remi - sounds lovely with that accent

[CinderellaRach]

Yes I'm having a boy and it's a boys name(although some people have used it as girls names).Thanks for comments

[Binkster]

It's also on our list- I love it! I know one in real life as well. Great choice!

[pooka]

makes me think of the mouse from ratatouille. or remy from allo allo.

only good if pronounced with definite french accent imo.

[CinderellaRach]

Thanks Binkster!Now to convince DH hehe...

[CinderellaRach]

Do you everyone will think of a mouse?

[AnnaSceptic]

I always thought it as a girl's name.

Allo Allo is Rene

[pooka]

No! Only those with an encyclopaedic knowledge of disney films engendered by having watched all of them goodness knows how many times (thanks ds1 and dd).

I do like the name, but really, as I said, only with the rolled 'r' you find with french accent. And was while I was saying it out loud to myself that I remembered Allo Allo.

[pooka]

Doh! of course it's bloody Rene!

[MiffyWhinge]

just makes me think of brandy

[dizzydixies]

was there not a film with Phoebe from friends in it called Remy something?

I quite like it, could be a grower

[skihorse]

Kind of. Remy Ma is an American female R&B/rap artist who was on her way to biiiiig things when she pulled a gun on a friend and shot her over an argument about money/men and is now in prison... That aside her music is brilliant and it's a lovely name!

[BessieBoots]

I like it, though I would have thought, seeing it written down, that it was pronounced Reemy.

[ChynaDoll2006]

Only thing of Remi Martin, whose full name is Reminisce. I think she's in prison.

[ChynaDoll2006]

Sorry, Skihorse, didn't see your post

[skihorse]

Reminisce is perhaps an unfortunate name given her current circumstances...

[AnnaSceptic]

lol!@ all the closet hiphop fans

[QueenofDreams]

When I was little one of my favourit TV programmes was called 'Remi' It was very sad though.
I love the name Although it will always make me think of Remi losing everything he loves in the world, but finally finding his mother

[gorionine]

It remind me of "Remi, sans famille" (without a family, there was an actual movie as well, even sadder) I think it is the same as yours QueenofDreams very sad story but I love the name.

[QueenofDreams]

Yes that's the one!
Havne't seen the movie, but the tv series made me bawl. (made my mum bawl too )

[belgo]

I've only heard of Remy as a boy's name.

I love the name Rene and Renee is the girl's version of that.

[gorionine]

There was a girl called remy in Dd1's class a few years back, I had forgotten as I generally think of Remy/Remi as a boy.

[Sunshinemummy]

I love the name Remy and it's on my list - Remy Moses was a famous footie player in 80s I think.

Downside is it's the name of the rat in Ratatouille but it's a fab name.
