I like it, I think unisex.

Awwlookatmybabyspider · 11/06/2017 17:03

I don't like it. Sounds like an indigestion tablet.
Girls name

I love it. I would say girl but if either parent was French, then boy.

Sycamorewindmills · 11/06/2017 17:13

I know one. A girl. It's fine.

Hi xx

Be careful because Remy is slang for remy martin, an alcoholic drink.

There are several rappers and rap songs called or featuring remy.

One rap artist is called Remy Ma- and you wouldn't want your baby named Remy if you listened to her music!

Can be either.

I like it for a boy, in fact considered it for DS2.

originalbiglymavis · 11/06/2017 17:16

I've only met male ones.

ThreeForAPound · 11/06/2017 17:22

I like Remy for a girl.

I know a woman called Remi with an 'i' and a guy called Remy (but he's actually called Jeremy Grin).

I know a 6 year old boy called Remy but I think it works as unisex

CaipirinhasAllRound · 11/06/2017 17:57

I only know it as a French boy's name. A French Canadian couple near us have a 2 year old Remy, I like it

twobarnsmammisonthebus · 11/06/2017 17:58

I like it. I can see that it would work for either sex but in my mind it's slightly more of a boys' name. We considered it for DS.

Sophronia · 11/06/2017 18:15

It's a French boys name. I like it. Romy is better for a girl.

NoSquirrels · 11/06/2017 18:34

Until now I only knew it as a boy's name, but coincidentally this week a baby girl. So I guess it's unisex. My instant reaction is bit, but I think that's just default only met blokes called Remy!

Nonameyet1 · 11/06/2017 18:57

Love Remy, it was on my names list for a boy.

user1471456357 · 11/06/2017 19:00

My sister has a French bull dog called Remy.

AgentCooper · 11/06/2017 19:00

Gorgeous! But definitely a boy's name for me.

cigarettesandcush · 11/06/2017 19:01

Love it 😍

tattychicken · 11/06/2017 19:02

It's brandy.

TheLionQueen1 · 11/06/2017 19:02

Boy, a character in Ratatouille is Remy!

Coey2016 · 11/06/2017 19:21

I would think boy. I like it. I think I'd like it for a girl too

Thetitisright · 11/06/2017 19:25

Rémy sans famille. Je m'appelle Rémy et je suis sans famille la la la la ....

LapCatLicker · 11/06/2017 19:29

I know a Remy. He's 6 and has one parent who's Italian. I always think of it as a boy's name. It's lovely BTW.

Jooni · 11/06/2017 20:02

Beautiful name for a boy!

grufallosfriend · 11/06/2017 20:04

Remy is a boys name!

Romilly or Romy is a girls name.

bridgetreilly · 11/06/2017 20:44

It reminds me of Remo: Unarmed and Dangerous.

I admit, it's a niche response, but not a good one, imo.
