It's a pet form of Remigius. Seriously do you want to call your daughter with this name?

This is nice on a boy but it's a bit tacky on a girl. It just seems like you don't know anything about the name's history and just used it because it sounds trendy and appealing. If you want a similar name for a girl you can use Romy.

I know it’s a boy’s name, but it just sounds too feminine for me to use on a boy.
The name Remi was actually given to 242 baby girls and 66 baby boys born in the US in 2012. In my opinion, it's a bit too nickname-y and wayyy to masculine for a girl.
This is my cat's name! But I would definitely not name a person this, it sounds ridiculous and childish.

Oh, by the way, I pronounce my cat's name REM-ee. I personally thought that's how it was pronounced, but I have to admit I like it a lot more than the French pronunciation ;)

I LOVE this name. Not the 'American' girl's name Remy (I heard of Americans naming their daughter Remy with y), but the French boy's name Rémi. Some might say that it sounds 'childish' because it ends with 'ee', but Rémi sounds very strong and masculine to me. Rémi is not 'trendy' or anything either, it's a classic French name that has been used for ages, the fact that it was used in the 1878 novel 'Sans Famille' just proves it. The only problem is that I do not like the English pronunciation of the name. And I don't live in France, so I probably wouldn't name my son Rémi even though I love the name.
