Re: Raymonde
in reply to a message by Wordsmith
Raymonde is pronounced [reh-MOND], so the "Ray" nickname isn't intuitive and I guess most people would butcher the name as "Raymond" anyway.
For 'Ray' I'd go with something like Rachel, Rain, Reina, or the Japanese Rei (or Reika / Reiko) (pronounced the same).
More ideas (even if some are a stretch):
Mireia / Mireille
Lorraine
Igraine
Andreia [un-DRAY-a]
