Romy is great! I know an absolutely lovely one. It's not too commonly heard of, but known enough to not be odd. It's my favourite from your list.

Romy is great. I like it short for Rosemary.

It’s lovely as are Daisy, Marnie and Esme.
i’ve only heard of a new baby Marnie recently.

What about Elahi or Remy?

Who? No disrespect to this person, but I've never heard of them.

Show quote history

I suspect you are a lot younger than I am. She was a French German actress. She’s worth a Google.

Just makes me think of Romy Schneider and her rather unhappy life.

Maggots?
I like the name, unfortunately the 3 I’ve ever known have been little horrors, sure that’s nothing to do with the name though 😂

Romy is lovely. Sweet little girl name but not too cutesy for an adult.
Really like all of your choices - I love Ava but it's incredibly popular. I know about a gazillion Ava/Eva/Ada girls.

Romy is lovely, the world doesn’t need any more maggots.

NorthernDancer · 15/10/2025 09:10

Best of the bunch!

boxofbuttons · 15/10/2025 09:09

Romy is one of my favourite girl's names!

Michaelah · 15/10/2025 09:06

I don’t think it sound like a proper name

DappledThings · 15/10/2025 09:05

Romy is ok. Will always associate it with lying about investing post-its though.

3luckystars · 15/10/2025 09:04

Sorry except Bonnie, I have a reason for that but I don’t like the name.

3luckystars · 15/10/2025 09:04

I love it and I like all your other names too x
