Rhys on a girl?
I was reading a book and realized the author, first name Rhys, was a woman, which startled me for a moment, since I'd only ever seen it on guys, or on surnames (like Sophie Rhys-Jones). But after contemplating it a while, I began to see at as a unisex name that definitely works on a girl. I've met people named Lies, so why not Rhys? What do you think? She looks to be around 65.Also, the books have some fantastic names in them, set in 1932 London. For example:
-Lady Victoria Georgiana Charlotte Eugenie, "Lady Georgiana" or "Georgie"
-Prince Siegfried, also called "Fishface" by Georgie in private
-Hamish, Hilda, and their son Hector, affectionately known as "Binky", "Fig", and "Podge"
-Belinda Warburton-Stoke
-Darcy O'Mara
-Jean-Claude
-Marc-Antoine
-Augustus "Gussie" Gormsley
-Princess Maria Theresa Hannelore Wilhelmina Mathilda, "Hanni"
-Mildred Poliver
-Noel Coward
-Hugo Beasley-Bottome
-Roland Aston-Poley, "Roley Poley"
-Primrose Aston-Poley
-Marisa Pauncefoot-Young
-Whiffy Featherstonehaugh
-Princess Maria Theresa "Mattie"
-sisters Jensen, Reagan, and Danika
-Cordelia
-Fiona
-Imogen
-Tristram
-Irmgardt
