narrowed down to these two names we both love. Which would you pick?

Reva doesn’t really sound like a person name to me. It reminds me more of a product name like ‘the Reva sofa in grey’ or ‘Reva dress’ or something. I don’t love Aria either - Ariana or Ariadne are nicer I think.

Too many Arias now. Reva is better!

Ariadna. Aria for short.

Is it pronounced Reeva or Rayva or Revva?

Aria! Such a beautiful name. GOT is done, it would be clutching at straws now to to say you copied it.

i don’t know any Aria’s and I’ve a young DD in nursery.

Aria.

Reva I don't like at all to put it mildly.

I like Aria. It is very popular among the current generation of children though, so it might become a "dated" name which is something to consider.

My problem with Reva is I'm not sure whether to pronounce it with the long E or short E. If it's pronounced the long E (rhyming with Eva) then I think it's very pretty. The short E pronunciation is not as nice to my ears.

Aria of the two

Reva just reminds me of the poor girl who was murdered

But neither very distinguished..

I like Reva there are simply too many Aria's around it's become one of those Aria S or Aria M? names

Reva, prefer it spelt Reeva though.

HappyMe6 · 07/04/2023 16:39

Reva

Monkeytapper · 07/04/2023 16:41

I prefer the Reeva spelling

HJ40 · 07/04/2023 16:43

Probably already been decided by now Smile

shoopshoopdedoo · 07/04/2023 17:42
