What do you think of Rory? Or is it usually spelt Roary?

I think we are having a boy this time and DH is choosing our boys name. Our girls names are unusual and we wanted something unusual for a boy but Rory is the only name DH can think of and actually likes.

I do like it and it goes well with the middle names patrick Joseph which is after my DFIL who sadly isnt here anymore :(

Rory Patrick Joseph last name, when I say it in my head it sounds lovely :)

It's never spelled Roary Shock. That's the racing car.

I wouldn't say it's unusual, but I love it (disclaimer: I have one Wink).

It's the anglicised spelling of Irish/Scottish Ruari or Ruairi or Ruaridh or Ruairidh.

Rory Patrick Joseph sounds great.
