Hello, we have found out we are having a baby boy. I love the name Ruairidh but my husband is not so sure due to the spelling. What do you all think? Is it going to be spelled wrongly all the time? Any other name suggestions? We wanted something not too common. We thought about Rory instead but unsure?

Thank you for reading

It’s a great name. But Ruairi is a simpler spelling.

Rudyard?

It looks too complicated. No idea how to say it.

Are you in Scotland? I knew a few Rhuaridhs growing up - it didn't seem to cause much issu

As a recruiter I wouldn't have a clue how to pronounce it!

How do you pronounce it?

Ruadhan is a similar vibe but I think it's a nicer name and a little more contemporary than Ruairidh.

I love the name but agree it’s open to too many misspellings

You could just leave out the dh at the end - just have it as Ruairi.
