[Opinions] Rhylee

Anyone else like this variant spelling of Riley? I think I have a thing for names that start with "Rh" — I just feel like it adds a soft, feminine touch.

I don't think it's awful, but I prefer Rylie and Ryleigh as feminine spellings go. If it were me, I'd probably go with Rylia "Rye-lee-uh" over (any variant of) Riley, etc. for a girl.

In spite of myself, I like the spelling. I've never seen it before. I agree that the H gives it a softer look. Thank you for sharing. :)

I think it’s hideous, sorry. While I love Rhoda, grafting that Greek beginning onto a trendy modern name doesn’t sit well with me.

Ooh, I didn't realize that's a Greek beginning! No wonder I think it's great.

Very Lovecraftian. I could get into it! How about Rhyleigh.

I don't like either but Riley is better imo.

Fair enough, I'm not a huge fan of the name either.

I hate Rhylee but I do like "Rh" in general. I don't think it's soft or feminine, I'd describe it as more earthy and rustic.
I like Rhiannon, Rhianna, Rhian, Rhea, Rheia, Rhys (I like the spelling more than the sound there), Rhodopis, Rhonwen, Rhydderch, Rhoecus, Rhodric, Rhaena, Rhydian

Rhys is definitely a much better spelling than Reese. Reese just seems like such a nasal name, but Rhys tones it down in my head.
