I only know Reenie as a nickname for Maureen, or possibly Doreen!

Love Joanie.

I like Sylvie and Edith, probably prefer Sylvie.

I actually like the sound of Reenie but don’t like it written down at all, even spelt Rene.

emilybrontescorsett · 24/10/2020 18:10

I like Edith and Sylvia rather than Sylvie.

pilates · 24/10/2020 18:03

Sylvie
Edith in that order

Dislike Reenie, reminds me of a 70s publican

Felicity88 · 24/10/2020 17:26

Sylvie

VenusClapTrap · 18/10/2020 09:44

Love Edith.

How about Lydia?

TheDaydreamBelievers · 17/10/2020 19:25

Like sylvie/sylvia
Like Edith/Edie but is popular atm
Do not like Reenie (not seen before but looks like Rennies) but how about Remi or Renee or René?

Whatsyourflava · 17/10/2020 16:14

Love Edith and Sylvie
Slight preference for Edith as so many names seem to end "ie" at the moment

MikeUniformMike · 17/10/2020 15:53

Joanie definitely, but Jeannie is nice too.

Renee is quite nice and can be pr. Renay or Reeny.

Thank you! I think Sylvie is winning for me at the min!

Edith is the best from the list.

Reenie is usually spelt Rene.

WettnWild · 17/10/2020 09:44

I like Sylvie the best, no obvious shortenings which is always a bonus.
Joanie will get shortened to Jo which is meh.
Reenie will get called Rennie.

AriesTheRam · 17/10/2020 09:33

Sylvie is beautiful

PoodleMoth · 17/10/2020 09:29

I know a Joanie a Sylvie and an Edie, the only one to my taste is Edie but I haven't heard any negatives in real life towards the other 2!

MercyBodle · 16/10/2020 23:47

I love both Sylvie and Edith/Edie - gorgeous names. I think Reenie is sweet as a nickname for an Irene, or another reen ending name. I don't mind Joanie, but prefer Sylvie and Edith/Edie.

I agree with Lemon on Sylvia.

Edith/Edie is quite nice.

Lemonsyellow · 16/10/2020 21:50

Edith. But not Edie.
Sylvie is OK but Sylvia is much better.
Reenie is a bit odd. Irene is quite nice.

AcrobaticCardigan · 16/10/2020 21:27

Sylvie is gorgeous!

Crunchymum · 16/10/2020 21:24

I'd spell Reene as Rene.

It's usually short for Irene.

Sylvie is lovely.

Enko · 16/10/2020 19:24

Sylvie is cute

Garcellesaidwhaaat · 16/10/2020 19:23

Yes to Joanie.
