Do you prefer Chad or Reece?

Thank you

You mean Reese?

No? I have only met boy Reeces. I have met 1 girl Reese, but she was from the US? Might just be my experience though!

Reece. Definitely.

I prefer the more traditional Rhys or Rees spellings.

Don't like Chad. Make m think of Florida in the elections.

Just looked and it is definitely Reece and Reese is at number 2000 and something!

Yeah, Rhys is nice, but there was a boy in my class growing up and no one knew that his name spelt Rhys, so when everyone handed out the books, etc. his was always left behind!

Reece definitely.

Reece. I really dislike Chad

Reece.

Chad is truely awful. Sorry but it is

I see Reece as a naughty boy name. I prefer the spelling Rhys but still not a fan

Please not Chad though shudder

I seem to be in a minority here, but I prefer Chad!

Chad reminds me of that evil rapist footballer. Why not Rhys? much nicer spelling.

I'm married to a Chad (I live in the States, he's an American), and over here, it's very dated. Before I met my husband, it was one of those names I wasn't keen on, as I assumed it was a modern name (i.e. the name of the country being used as a first name).

However after meeting my husband, I learned that in fact it has historical roots, and was the name of a 7th century English saint (St. Chad of Mercia). Well that was me well and truly put right.

I think Reece is more usable right now, if I'm honest, but then at the same time I don't think Chad was ever as popular back in the UK, as it once was here, so maybe it won't date like it has here.

I'm no help.

Reece.

Love 'Chad'.
Reece, Rhys whatever, looks too much like 'Rice' and rhymes with Grease.

Both awful

Reece.

Both really awful, sorry

Definitely Rhys, not one of the other spellings.

Not keen on Chad sorry.

Reece (although I too prefer Rhys)

Chad is a name best left in the pages of Sweet Valley High.

was the name of a 7th century English saint (St. Chad of Mercia). Well that was me well and truly put right.

😀 Who knew?

It's like the time I discovered there was a Saint Tallulah.

Chad is awful. Disregard that

I'm another who sees Reece / Rhys / Reese as a naughty kid name. Or it makes me think of Reese's Pieces.

Oh no, it seems Rhys suffers the same fate as its fellow Celtic cousins Kyle and Conor.......

.......Naughty Boy Names

Which goes better with your surname?

Out of the two names I really like Chad but I associate it with American teen dramas and wouldn't personally choose it. If I were to go for Reece then I'd spell it Reece, I've never liked the spelling Rhys and I think that is the Welsh spelling so unless I was Welsh and it was a family name then I'd go with Reece.
