I'd go with Reid. I really like the name too, great choice. It's not that popular, well I don't think so, so it should be fine. What about using Reid Caspian then?

I personally prefer Reed, but that's mostly because it's a family name for me (my mother's maiden name), that spelling. Reid is great, too, though some might misspell it ('is it "ei" or "ie"?' lol).

I prefer Reid, but either spelling is fine.

Wow. It looks like I'm in the minority with Sabrina Fair.

The reason I prefer Reed is three-fold. First, whenever I see "ei" or "ie" my mind takes a minute to process whether it should be an "ee" sound like Frieda, or a long "i" sound like Lorelei. The Reed spelling is so much easier.

---

Secondly, I like that it makes me think of a reed near a river. I like names from nature. While I usually think of them as more feminine than masculine, Reed seems happily ensconced in the male category.

---

Finally, it makes me think of John Reed, whom the movie "Reds" was about.

I do agree with many others that Caspian would make a terrific mn. Just for fun, others you might like:

Reid is great - handsome, not common, but easy to say and remember - terrific choice!! Either spelling works, but the Reid spelling is much more visually interesting and less like someting one would find by the water. :)

Reid! I love the name. My friend has a baby cousin named Gavin Reid, and I think it's adorable, whether it be mn or fn. Good choice! :)

I prefer the spelling Reid, I like this name a lot, it's a family name for me

I prefer Reid, and I think that it is a lovely name. I agree with Array, Reid Caspian sounds good to me. Perhaps, you can both compromise? Congratulations, btw.

I prefer Reid. I think it's very handsome and familiar without being at all common.

A revolution without dancing is a revolution not worth having.

I prefer Reid, it's more name like to me. Reed makes me think of wood.

Reid Euripides, obviously.
