I wish I could kick myself! I named my daughter Raina, but Raine is better since it has a note of ambiguity- useful in job applications. Why didn't I see this? Changing the name is so complicated at this point. A thousand regrets.

Raine is my middle name and I love it. I was named after my aunt whose name is Lauraine (as in Laurence) and although it's not my first name, I often go by Raine.

My name is Raine, I am 62 and as a child I wasn’t keen on it because all my friends had common names. However as an adult, and now unusual names are more common, I love it.
Pretty name! I love it!... I would spell it Rayne though.

I've seen it used for girls. Pretty and elegant feminine name. I do prefer the Rayne spelling though!

Nice name.. Used much more for girls, and that's how it should be. It's soft and feminine! Seems more commonly spelled Rayne these days and I prefer it spelled Rayne.

Raine is a pretty gorgeous name; I like it spelled thusly. At once hippie-ish and elegant. :)
I love this name, but wouldn't use it as a first name because of the comments and jokes the kid would get. I'd use it at as middle name. This spelling is the best one, in my opinion.

This name is quite ugly and lame. And I can't help but think of Raine Spencer, aka "Acid Raine", the hated stepmother of the late Princess Diana.
This is such a cool name for someone a bit unconventional and edgy. It sounds like the name of a cool girl with a great taste in music, someone who has a bit of an indie look. It's not bad on grown women either. It's just that variations of this name seem to be really common as middle names for ghastly names like Heaven and Nevaeh. Not a middle name for me. It's already stale as such.
This is a much prettier spelling of Rain. Although I think I prefer Rayne, but all versions are nice. A BEAUTIFUL name.

This is my name, and I can recommend it to anyone, but be prepared for it to be mispronounced and for people to tell you jokes about the weather because I've been hearing them my entire life so far.
Raine for me, is God's Gift. A beautiful name for a girl with a beautiful face. When she smiles she just doesn't know how she takes my breath away. I hope GOD makes more people like her, because she's someone who can make a person feels good about life.
