It isn't though. What you've written is pronounced "rice".

Not a great name when so many nicer and prettier names out there but please dont spell it Riese. Spell it Reese like Whitherspoon.

I'd pick a different spelling.

Why do you like that spelling?

Just go with Reese or Rhys, which are fine.



Rhys is also trashy


I taught in the UK for a long time and knew multiple kids with this name. It's classic Welsh, certainly not made up or kr8ive. I think it has been around for at least 800 years, and has been the name of rulers and aristocrats in the past. It has gone through cycles of popularity over history, but I don't see how it could be trashy?

Maybe it is different in the US.



Yes it’s different in the US.


Disagree. Rhys, as a boy’s name, is perfectly fine in the US.

Let me save you some time: 10% think creative spellings are fine, 15% think appropriating masculine names/spellings for girls (Rhys) is fine or even preferable, and everyone else wonders what you have against the accepted spelling of the name.


You left out the percentage of people who just assume the mother was too stupid to know how it is actually spelled. I think that's actually a large one.

I’ve never seen it spelled that way, so it did not occur to me how to pronounce it at first. The name Reese is fine. The way you spelled is odd.

Confusing and terrible name. Don’t do it.

Spell it normally so your poor child doesn't spend her entire life having her name misspelled until she legally changes the spelling.

Riese is not.

I think I just like Reese better than Riese. I like the name, just not fond of that spelling.
