Romani, there is no R so I’m not sure why you’d add one. She’s no longer with us but it’s Romani :)

There's no 'r' in Titania but it's prounced by many as 'Titarnia'

Not suggesting you call your DD Titania OP, just pointing out that spelling is no guide to pronunciation.

Sorry to hear that Flowers

I ask because I know a Romani pronounced Romarni.

Romaine is a type of lettuce.

I agree. But Romane is a popular French girls’s name.

Pronounced differently too. I was suggesting it as an alternative to Romaine.

I really love Romy

My nephew is Remi, but everyone else I have heard of with that name is a girl, and most people think it's odd for a boy (ie. think of it as girls name by default). We're in Oz, so maybe that is some of the difference in viewpoint?

MrsFoxPlus4 · 17/12/2018 17:24

Oh don’t be sorry, I have a soft spot for the name & variations ❤️

ChikiTIKI · 17/12/2018 19:52

Do you like Ramara? I know someone with this name. People call her Romi :)

MrsFoxPlus4 · 18/12/2018 14:35

I know a Romanna called Rom :)

Remy/ Rémi is a French boy’s name.
Romy sounds like roomy - like an adjective...same as Romily.
How about Lorelei?

mrsdaisyodonnell · 02/01/2019 01:13

Romy is more classic and beautiful. Remy sounds too Kardashian for me

MrMeSeeks · 02/01/2019 01:28

Like both. I’ve heard of Remy as a girls name, i didn't know it was a boys name though Confused
