Baby girl due soon we are stuck on these names to give her for a first name. We want one starting with the letter R. Which one of these names do you like best? If there are other name suggestions that begin with R that would be helpful. Thanks

Not really a fan of any of them, sorry. But if I had to pick it would be Rosie.

Ruby
Raya

What about Rowena, Robyn or Roxanne ?
From your list I like Ruby.

twordle · 15/09/2022 15:59

I love Rosalie

StopFeckingFaffing · 15/09/2022 16:00

From your list I like Raven and Roxy but I like Robyn better than any name on your list

SatInTheCorner · 15/09/2022 16:01

I personally like Raven but I'm not sure many would.

Not overly keen on the rest of them. I like Rosalia as a suggestion.

Raya

AmberGer · 15/09/2022 16:03

Raya

Mxyzptlk · 15/09/2022 16:04

How about Rowan?

Rosalie, with Rosie as nickname , would be nice.

(I'm not a fan of girls' names that sound as if they are a shortened version of something, if they're not.)

MsFizz · 15/09/2022 16:04

Ruby and Rosie. Not keen on the others sorry.

Johnnysgirl · 15/09/2022 16:05

From that list it would have to be Rosie. Definitely not Raven...

Shodan · 15/09/2022 16:05

I like PPs suggestions of Robyn or Rosalie. From your list Rosie is the best. Rose would be better.

Roxy, to me, will always be a dog's name (thanks sis). Plus the possibility of Poxy Roxy would put me off

Johnnysgirl · 15/09/2022 16:05

Oh, someone's suggested Rowan. That's nicer than all of that list.

Soubriquet · 15/09/2022 16:06

Oo Rowena is nice

uncomfortablydumb53 · 15/09/2022 16:06

Rosie
Or Romy?

cptartapp · 15/09/2022 16:10

Rachael at a push.
How about Rosa?

MotherOfDragons31 · 15/09/2022 16:10

Raven and raya

TravellingJack · 15/09/2022 16:11

Rosalyn

midgetastic · 15/09/2022 16:12

Rebecca ?

AceofPentacles · 15/09/2022 16:12

Rita?

toastedcat · 15/09/2022 16:13

Raya is a high-end dating app for "celebs" if that impacts your decision. It's a shame as it's a lovely name!

pilates · 15/09/2022 16:14

Ruby
I prefer Rose
