What are your thoughts on Rory?

How many do you know?

I like Rory, I've never met another

Scribblegirl · 03/07/2018 13:29

I love it, would be on our list but sister's partner is called Rory (26 yo) so unless anything changes there it'll be a veto for us. I think it's a great boy's name though - classic, masculine, not overtly popular and still cute on a kid.

bettybyebye · 03/07/2018 13:32

Love it - I know a 25yr old Rory, a 70yr old Rory and a 5yr old Rory. Works really well for both children and adults

I think Gilmore Girls and she’s rather insufferable so no I don’t like it. In real life I know 2- one is a man in his late 20s, the other is a 2 year old girl.

I like it. I know 1 Rory.

BabloHoney · 03/07/2018 13:36

Rory is fabulous

My best friend has a Rory, he's 9. I might have used it for our son if she hadn't got in first :)

Notquiteagandt · 03/07/2018 13:43

I like it. I know 2x rorys one about 9 the other in his 30s. Works well for all ages.

I see the spelling Ruairí more than rory though if I am honnest.

Its not a common name but not one to give confusion. A nice strong name.

StillNoClue · 03/07/2018 13:50

X1 who's about 2.
X2 who are late 20's and oddly have the same surname

I love Rory for a girl!

Cliveybaby · 03/07/2018 14:05

it's nice (for a boy).
I knew a ruari last year

Peachbubble · 03/07/2018 14:24

I like it. Don't know any, so not overly used.

sonnyboo · 03/07/2018 15:04

It's hard to pronounce for those who can't say their Rs properly.

PopPoppityPop · 03/07/2018 15:28

If DD2 was a boy she would have been Rory! I love it. I don't know any

Sugarpiehoneyeye · 04/07/2018 09:47

Great name, love Rory.

DeckSofa · 04/07/2018 10:15

I don't like it and don't know any.

BasicBetty · 04/07/2018 11:11

I'm neutral about it. Don't love it, don't dislike it. I know 2 - one 6yrs and one adult.

starkid · 04/07/2018 12:00

I know one who's around 30

jobbymcginty · 04/07/2018 12:03

I know 2 a 13 year old and 1 year old lovely name both Rory's I know are lovely boys

Coldhandscoldheart · 04/07/2018 12:08

Depends where you are I think. It’s a lovely name, there’s lots in Scotland, with various spellings. I can think of four under six off tge top of my head.

LoveInTokyo · 04/07/2018 12:13

I like it. I know one, in his 30s.

Flamingosnbears · 04/07/2018 12:40

Not as popular as it once seemed, it's an OK name means Red King.
