Romilly

thoughts?

Very nice, and I've never met one.

Really don't like it. Sorry. It just hasn't got an attractive sound to it.

Inspired by newsreader Romilly Weeks... LOL

Gorgeous. It's unusual but not ridiculous. And it's a place in the champagne region of France.

But my lovely four month old makes me biased.

Would have def been on my list but doesn't go with our surname, love it

Absolutely love it. Has always been one of my favourites.

Not keen, sorry.

My friend lives in Romiley and I've always thought it would be a nice name.

How about Romany?

I love it

Lovely classy name.

LOVE it! It was on my short list but my dh wasnt so keen. I think its gorgeous!

I love this name and am currently working on dh to have this for our dd due in September. I worked with a lovely girl called Romilly years ago who would now be in her early 30s.

I'm hoping for Romilly Rose (middle name selected years ago after a relative).

I think I like it

I actually really like it. Would be unlikely to use it myself, but do still like it. :)

Really like it and Romy is also lovely as a NN.

I know a boy called this, it really suits him

Love it.

I like it although I've never met one. So seems a nice and underused name.

I like it and Romy is a cute nickname imo.

I have one - she'll be six next week. I love it.

People do mishear it though - probably more because it is unusual than because it actually sounds like 'Romany/Bromley/Wobbly'

Ours doesn't have a nickname, really. Inspired by my friend's sister (in her 30s) who herself was named after/inspired by the son (because, pre-war it was pretty much a boy's name) of Welsh painter Augustus John.

Have you seen this website?

Strangely, I know of at least 5 (not counting my own) - so not sure if that means it's due a surge (even a small one) in popularity.

and then I stumbled across these...
