What do you all think of this name for a girl?

First heard it as Princess Diana's stepmothers name. Although spelled Raine.

Also any Nashville fans will recognise Rayna!

Thought the 'Raine' spelling would leave little one wide open for getting picked on potentially?

I just love the name. Any suggestions for best spellings?

"Why do people name shame porn stars and strippers? You know they are human right?"

Yes, and we also know that their working names are not (usually) their real names. And that names which fit the stereotypes of their working names carry the association extremely strongly.

Have you ever played 'porn star or my little pony' ?

Raine is an abbreviation of Lorraine, would you name her Lorraine and use Raine as a nickname? Or would it be just Raine?

I really like it! And I would spell it Rayne too.

But then it wanted twin girls called summer and skye so I'm a bit weird anyway lol Blush

Rayne is a village near where we live. It's a boring little village, quite pretty in a way. Not recommended as a name for a baby though, especially if you live there!

Raine is better than Rayne. Not my style of name, but I quite like Raine. But it's very much associated with Barbara Cartland's daughter/Princess Diana's stepmum. Didn't Barbara Cartland invent it for her?

Ok so maybe... 'Raine' lol 😂 I'm not getting the stripper vibe but it is a bit out there lol
