Comments for RAE:

I like the name Rae as a nickname for Raegan. :)

I LOVE this name. I can't explain why but I just think it's a beautiful name, not only for a pet name for someone named Rachel or Raquel (as myself) but also as a first name. I love the sound of it! Reminds me of the sun, the summer and someone really brave and sweet.

Unique and pretty.

I think it is a pretty name as well as a good nickname for someone named Rachel or Raegan. I have a friend who we call Rae-Rae to get on her nerves.

My middle name is Rae and so far I have never met another girl named Rae. I like it for a short form of Raelyn or just for a first name. A unique spelling I've found is Rai or Raii.

I know someone called Rae, who is a girl, and this is not a nickname! Rae for a girl's full name is absolutely hideous, and entirely masculine. No offence to all those Rae's out there.

I have also seen the name Raelee.

Rae is a good name but gets old quickly.

I think Rae is a good middle name for a girl.

Rae can also be short for Raven. That is Raven-Symone's nickname in the show "That's So Raven".

I know a girl named "Anarae." Pronounced ANN-A-RAY.

The name of the heroine in "Black Snake Moan".

Clichéd, sort of trashy, masculine because it sounds like 'Ray', and the 'ae' part is ugly since it is at the end.

-- gretaelisif  11/19/2007

Too plain and minimalist.

In my opinion Rae is much, much prettier than the ugly name it's often associated with: Rachel.

-- Junidoe-Josephine  8/24/2008

This name sounds like a generic middle name for a female redneck.

-- bananarama  10/7/2008

Rae is a lovely name, nice and short. I know two girls called Rae as their full name.

-- tessafearnley  11/1/2008

A sweet modern name, which happens to be one of the only modern names that is pronounceable and not sucky. It expresses creativity without scaring your children.

Rae is the name of a character from the short novel "There's No Such Place as Far Away" written by Richard Bach.

ATTENTION! This is now my official nickname! My name's Rachel, so I think this will be a cute nickname, instead of Rachelle and Rach, and it's a lot less common. Yay!

-- LilSingstarEeyore  1/14/2009

One of the most horrible first names I have ever seen. The pronunciation of this name is WAY too masculine for a female. As a middle name though it isn't so bad, with the right first name (something very feminine) this could be cute.

The coolest name I ever heard.
