Kind of. Remy Ma is an American female R&B/rap artist who was on her way to biiiiig things when she pulled a gun on a friend and shot her over an argument about money/men and is now in prison... That aside her music is brilliant and it's a lovely name!

was there not a film with Phoebe from friends in it called Remy something?

I quite like it, could be a grower

just makes me think of brandy

Doh! of course it's bloody Rene!

No! Only those with an encyclopaedic knowledge of disney films engendered by having watched all of them goodness knows how many times (thanks ds1 and dd).

I do like the name, but really, as I said, only with the rolled 'r' you find with french accent. And was while I was saying it out loud to myself that I remembered Allo Allo.

I always thought it as a girl's name.

Allo Allo is Rene

only good if pronounced with definite french accent imo.

Binkster · 03/03/2010 08:46

It's also on our list- I love it! I know one in real life as well. Great choice!

i know a french boy Remi - sounds lovely with that accent

belgo · 03/03/2010 08:35

Only in France.

Is it for a boy? I think it's a feminine sound. It might grow on me.
