what do u think of this name? - too old fasioned?

[pixydust]

I really love the name Ray for my little boy

It would be just Ray (possibly Raye) - not short for Raymond or anything.
as in 'Ray of light' or 'Ray of sunshine'

I like the sound of Little Ray or Baby Ray I think its cute for a baby and suitable for a boy/man of all ages really

Full name would be Ray Lewis Jarrett or Ray Lewis Mark Jarrett
(family middle names)


I know it is quite old fashioned but i dont think it actually sounds old fasioned... if that makes sense lol

And the other thing, it does rhyme with Gay umm but tbh I dont see that being a huge problem with sooo many Aidens, Jaydens, Caydens and Haydens etc

Honest opinions please i know it wont be to everyones taste lol

I think it sounds lovely and not old-fashioned! Its one of those names that seems older because it is not massively popular. Also, it's unlikely he will be at school with many other Rays!

My thoughts - Go for it!!!

 

[MUMOF5]

I like it, probably because i like the name Gray . xx

 

[babyplease81]

I love it!!! I agree that it works for all ages

 

[Princessa]

I love it! Ever since watching Disney's The Frog Princess I've thought Ray was an adorable name...

 

[Penfelyn]

One of my friends is called Ray! Thats his full name too. So I consider it a young persons name, because of the association. Its great!

I do like Ray but not Raye x

 

[Auntie]

[Mrs-C]

I also like it. I agree, not unusual but unlikely he'll have any classmates with the same name.

[Hevz]

Go for it babe, sounds gorgeous! and you're right Baby Ray is cute!.. and when he gets older.. Ray, it's perfect

completely agree!


you must investigate though.. i think "raye" is the spelling for a girl (just assuming that based on the raye i know)

 

[rainysunshine]

I think that name is adorable. But just so you know, here in the US there is a very popular football player named Ray Lewis, so that is what I thought of. In the UK, it probably would never matter, though. Great name.
