What do you all think of this name for a girl?

First heard it as Princess Diana's stepmothers name. Although spelled Raine.

Also any Nashville fans will recognise Rayna!

Thought the 'Raine' spelling would leave little one wide open for getting picked on potentially?

I just love the name. Any suggestions for best spellings?

It sounds a bit like a porn star/ stripper name to me.

Nope!

I hate it.
I do like Rania or Raina though.

I wanted to use this for my last daughter but DH didnt like it as much. I was gutted!

Prefer Rayna.

I know a baby Raine. She is very cute. For that reason, I like it!

I love it! Even though I’m huge Nashville fan, I prefer the spelling Raine

ShotsFired · 08/08/2018 12:11

Initially it reminds me of the older East End Rene (I think - said "ree-nee").

But my second thought was that it was a youneek spelling of Rain.
And it's a lifetime of "no, raine with a e ... haha no, not like the wet stuff "

Raine is my niece's middle name. I'm not keen.

DailyFailAreTwats · 08/08/2018 11:54

Really don't like it. Whatever spelling you use will leave the child open to jokes. And it has a really whiny sound to me.

The spelling Raine is nicer but dislike the name.
