Help[Opinions] Re: Navy and Remi as girl's names in Utah
in reply to a message by clevelandkentevans
I think Navy just kind of fits in with popular names (occupational, colorful, and wordy-political ones like Saylor, Violet, Liberty), plus sounds vaguely like Nevaeh, Ava, Avery, Ivy, Waverly, Evie, Nova. So yeah, "different but not too different".
Remi sounds like Remei, Rumi (Beyonce's daughter), Romy (popular in France), and also Remy was Olivia Wilde's character "Thirteen"s official name in the TV show House, but I'd guess it's mainly popular with people in Utah because of Remington plus possibly Remiel or Remedy. Remington is being used as unisex already, but Remi sounds more cute and ambiguous, with an added biblical connection.
Both of these names make me think of guns, to be honest, since Remington is ammunition, and Navy is a military branch.
I don't know enough about the demographics to guess why they wouldn't be comparably popular in Colorado, though, and I've never heard of the people you mentioned.
