Thank you. Interesting that most think of Remy as more of a boys name, although I consider it unisex I preferred it for a girl Blush

Thanks Pemba

Romy is pronounced roam-y. It began as a shortening of the name Rosemarie or Rosemary.

Romy Shneider was a German film star in the 60s who also appeared in English language films.

Romilly is beautiful. Is Romy actually a name?

Remy, I adore Remy for a girl. Really dislike Romy.

How is Romy pronounced?
Rommy? Roamy?

I like Romy. Are you inspired by the Romy and Michelle film?
