My husband and I are having a heck of a time coming up with the spelling for our new baby girl's name. Please pick the spelling you like and also the middle name you like and let me know. My husband wants to go with the majority vote.
Spelling of First Name: Reagan or Reghan
Middle Name: Reese or Brooke
Thanks to everyone who responds.
Reghan for sure, dont want any ties to the ex pres. And brook, cause you dont want it rolling off the tongue with too many r's!
Reghan Reese
Reagan Brooke

Reagan for sure!
Ragin' Brooke for sure... I agree, no Reagan ! ugly
I vote for Reagan Brooke.....
One of my favorite female names is Ausne. ( Aww-s-nay)
It is a very old European name from thousands of years before any of the modern religions existed.
Reagan Brooke.
Just my advice coming from someone that deals with people every day, make the name simple, easy to pronounce and easy to spell. If you start spelling names different than the norm, no one will ever pronounce it right and your child will be made fun of. I have heard so many names botched over time it's ridiculous.
It would be too easy for teachers and other people to mispronounce "Reghan" as "Reggan".
"Reese" = Rhys = a boy's name. (Reese Witherspoon is actually named Laura.)
My first name is an "unusual" spelling - I have to correct everything with my name on it, and always have. Not to mention it was impossible to get personalised mugs, stickers, bears, all sorts of minor irritations like that. And also looks like my mum didn't know how to spell my name!
So I vote for Reagan Brooke. :) :) People will think you named her after Ronald Reagan though - are you?
