Probably Rhys if I had to pick between the two but neither are particularly favourite names of mine as I know people irl with both names whom I dislike

Rhys or David are both nice, I love a lovely boy called Rhys

PaulMorel · 05/07/2018 08:45

I would pick Rhys. Aside from it is a unique name, Rhys is an old Welsh name that means “enthusiasm”.

David

David.

I've never been a fan of Rhys. Rhys and all of its anglicisations (Reese, Reece) have been considered a bit "common" here in Australia. Very popular in decades past.

Rhys absolutely!

MikeUniformMike · 05/07/2018 10:31

If you are welsh speaking, Rhys, but welsh names without any connections are a bit downmarket.

MariaMadita · 05/07/2018 16:48

David :)

(David is actually one of my favourite boy's names. Classic, fairly international, pretty versatile...)

LoveInTokyo · 05/07/2018 18:45

Both nice names but I love David.
