For a girl,

What about Hope? Has that snappy one syllable vibe but is less androgenous.

I really like both names but the spelling of Reece reminds me of Reeces Pieces (peanut butter sweets). Think I prefer Rhys.

Rhys for a boy is OK, but wouldn't be my own choice. But it's a perfectly acceptable name for a boy.

REally really hate Brooke for a girl. Rhymes with Fuck. It's also a bit androgenous which I don't like, and it sounds like you're trying to be American.

Brooke - I think of that MTV show about Brooke Hogan, the daughter of Hulk Hogan!

They sound nice names but a little 'Hollywood' to me.

Brooke is okay. Don't like Reece much

sorry but i don't really like them either.

Not my favourites - what type of names do you like besides those?
