I'm a Rebecca, so I'm partial to that name.  I really like Ruth too though, and Reut - now that I know how to pronounce it - is lovely.

| I love Raina. It's one of my favorite names starting with any letter. |

| Romy is pretty popular in Israel these days (ROAM-ee). As is the aforementioned Roni. They both work well for non-Hebrew speakers. |

| My name is Reut and I live in the USA. Americans have a really hard time pronouncing my name and usually call me "Ray-oot". The correct phonetic pronunciation is like "red boot" without the d and b, "reh-oot". In hebrew it is soft and pretty. |

I knew a girl with that name when I was a camp counselor. She pronounced it Ray Oot. Lovely name. |

It's ugly. And, you can't keep your child in a bubble - they will spend their whole lives meeting new people and having to explain their name. |

| Wow, most of these are so ugly. Please don't name your daughter Reut. The only decent ones are Rachel and Rebecca. |
