[Opinions] Re: Rhys, Reece, Reese?
in reply to a message by Haeri
Rhys is one of my favorite names, and only this spelling does it for me.
Reese seems too much like Reese's Pieces and the actress Reese Witherspoon makes this spelling seem more feminine. In fact, a lot of people consider the name gender neutral (I don't. It's strictly masculine in my book.) Rhys would probably be more distinctly male.
I never even considered pronouncing Rhys like Rice and I don't really see how that might be someone's first instinct, but then again I live in my own little world.
Rhys is a strong, unique name that I think your son would be proud to have.
