Hi Everyone,

We are thinking of the name Renee with the little thingy above the middle e (is there anyway to put that in???)

Or
Rene (with the thingy over the last e)
Renae

I think I like Renae the best, what do you all think??

Benevolence
I like Renae the best too.

Hi Lisa,

I like Renee probably with the accent above the first e. It's such a pretty name though...

eta - changed where I like the accent and to add that I think most would pronounce it as ren-ay...

I like Renee (with the apostrophe thingymajig).

I also knew a lady once named Renay. original.gif

Do you think that Renee (with the thingy) would get the pronunciation ree nee??

I like the spelling Renée best (Alt0233 to get the accent).

I think in Australia most people would PN it REN-ay.

I quite like Renae, followed by Renee. I wouldn't use Rene as I believe that's the French male version of the name?

I like Renee with the thingy (acute) over the 2nd "e". Rene with only one "e" at the end is the masculine form of the name. Renae is a nice alternative, though.

Good luck!

I only like Renee, with or without the thingy.

I prefer Renae - as the emphasis is on the "ae"(ay) sound. Whereas with Renee (with the accent)it is on the "Ren" at the beginning - which to me just sounds "harder"

I prefer the spelling Renée. This is how my name is spelt, and I have never had a problem with anyone pronouncing it incorrectly.

I like Renee.
