HelpRe: WDYT OF REYNA !!?!?!
in reply to a message by isla_may
Pronounced similar to Rhea?
It's an okay name. I don't like it as its not my style, but its not bad. I like the re-nah pronunciation more than ray-nah, but I don't automatically read it as ray-nah, it seems more like an American thing (like Reagan being pronounced ray-gun rather than ree-gAn)
As it's relatively short, I'd opt for a longer middle name. To avoid repetitiveness, I'd take care not to repeat sounds - so no middle names beginning with r- or a- or ending with -a or -r sounds.
Reyna Elizabeth
Reyna Gwendolyn
Reyna Penelope
Reyna Persephone
Reyna Gabrielle
Reyna Hermione
Reyna Suzanne
Reyna Lorraine
Reyna Josephine
Or if those are too normal for you, something like;
Reyna Nightingale
Reyna Delphine
Reyna Wednesday
Reyna Zephyrine

I think it's more that a "ree" pronunciation would be an English/British thing. :)
Reyna looks Spanish (to Americans but also in general? Like Reina and Reynaldo, even though I guess there is Reynold which I would say "ren-uld"). Idk why Rhea and Reagan are often "reh/ray" here, maybe Irish/German/Italian/Spanish/Greek influence (I think of Beatrice, Shea, Andrea, Amedea, Thea). I think Americans would pronounce Riagan "ree-gan" plus Rhiannon is always "ree" here.
