I love, love, love the name Remy and pronounce it as reh-mee. Remington nn Remy is nice, but I prefer just Remy.

I know a Rémi who is Reh-mee. He is French btw.

I'm only familiar with the French pronounciation. It's a nice name.

Isn't Remington a kind of gun?

I would pronounce it REM-ee.

I would pronounce it REHM-ee. But I wouldn't put the little accent over the 'e' either.

Remington nn Remy is ok. I prefer just Remy. I read a book in high school once where the girls name was Rembrandt and they called her Remy and I've like Remy every since.

yeah in French it is a long eeh sound. But when you write eh in English it makes a short eh sound. So you need to write ay so people will get what you mean. so you write it as ray-MEE but it sounds more like reh-MEE with that long e sound. I personally hate it when Esmée is pronounced ez-MAY it should be ez-MEH

I don't know about the correct pronunciation (I've heard reh-MEE before), but I (and most other Americans) would say REH-mee. Like Gambit from X-Men. :)

I think Remy is a fine nn for Remington.
