I would spell it Ria. Rea is just rear without the r.

I think it is a pretty name. I know a 30 year old Ria. That's how I'd spell it.

Love this name! I would spell it ‘Ria’.

I have a niece called Rhia. Wasn't a fan at the start but its grown on me

I think Rea will pronounced as Rae as PP said. If you like the name I'd spell it Ria.

I’d pronounce Rea as Ray
Ria is too reminiscent of diarrhoea.
Then of course there’s also Rhea, which is a small ostrich type bird.
