I've come across this name which is practically non existent!

Remony.

I don't know its meaning or origin but I really love it. In my head it sounds like a variation of Remona? Anyways, what do people think?

Thanks :)

I agree ! It's a shame really. I still really like the name Remony. But everyone's Brexit comments scared me off it haha. If one came across a child named Remony (re-mu-nee/re-mon-ee) would they really think of Brexit remain??

Thanks for everyone's comments positive and negative! Maybe Remy as an alternative x

I think it’s lovely when pronounced to rhyme with remedy, but that’s not how i’d have automatically pronounced it based on the spelling. I too thought it was more like re-moany which is horrible, and I think that’s a problem you’d encounter a lot.

I’d go for a different spelling of it Remini is better if as a pp suggests that an accepted spelling of it, or if that’s also a made up sp. work with the remedy link and spell it, Remeny, more people then are likely to pronounce it the way you want

Quite like it . Never come across that one.

Never heard of it, I quite like it but would risk lots of mishearings and misspellings.

Romilly
Melody
Remy
Bryony
Bethany

I agree. The spelling altered to Remeny is very pretty thank you!!! Little Remeny in Remy

I like it!

Like lemony but not.

VivienneHolt · 29/07/2019 21:41

It reminds me of the name of the vampire baby in twilight.

Josiefuzz · 29/07/2019 21:59

@missdumbledore how about Romy? Quite rare but lovely and feminine x

Littlejets · 29/07/2019 22:15

Please don't hate me for pointing this out but you may like to know that Remy is also a shortened meaning for remedial (although spelt 'reme').

I can imagine twin Remony and Brexi.

I like Ramona and Romy.

Nearlyalmost50 · 29/07/2019 22:24

I like Remony and it doesn't sound like Remoaner to me at all, I think it rhymes with Lemony! So Remoni.

I wouldn't worry about the Brexit connection, it's rather tenuous and won't be relevant by the time little Remony grows up.

mrsw2 · 29/07/2019 22:35

I really like it

madcatladyforever · 29/07/2019 22:36

Her nickname is always going to be moany.

Sounds like you're trying to say memory but getting mixed up
