Rory?

[Ash06]

What are your opinions on Rory?

I knew a few from toddler to 40’s I like it timeless and ageless I think.

Like it

I absolutely love it.

My husband is a Rory. It means red king, I think. Love it.

I like it, also spelled: 'Ruari'.

Love!

It’s on my list.

I have one and he’s awesome

Love!

Love it.

My best friend is called Rory so I'm biased. It's lovely.

I like it

I like it to.
Timeless - never 'fashionable' and never 'out of fashion'. Likely to be the only one in his circle (though is potentially more common in Scotland than in other countries?).
Easy to spell / read if anyone weren't familiar with it.

I like it. Though it's the name of DS's favourite toy (a stuffed dinosaur)

It's a bit of a curse for poor souls like me who can't pronounce their 'r's properly....

I really love it too! I found out what I’m having on Wednesday, as much as I don’t mind on boy or girl I am finding boys names a lot nicer!

Love it

What I mean to say is, if it turns out he can't, he's in for a tough time.

Find*

Love it

I have one. It’s fabulous.

Yes!

I’m not keen but I think I’m definitely in the minority.

It's risen quite rapidly in popularity in England and Wales names.darkgreener.com/#rory Now a top 50 name.

As previous posters have said, it's a Scottish Gaelic name (in origin) that means Red King.
Rory is the Anglicised spelling. The Gaelic spelling - acording to trad spelling rules- is Ruairidh.
The two versions don't sound the same.

Ruairidh/Ruairi is pronounced "roo ree" whereas Rory is pronounced "row ree"
