'Rom' names

[namespy]

I love the 'Rom' sound in names.
Romy is on my girls name list, and Romilly is a name I like the sound of too; Roman was on our boys list but it just didn't feel ideal.

Am just curious as to any 'Rom' names I'm missing- as interesting/rare as you like.
Just hoping for some new finds, really!

Remy is close but not a "romy."

Romain: I'm a big fan of the actor Romain Duris so I think it's a great name but here it's a lettuce

Here is a big list of "Rom" names, most of which I know little or nothing about so if you like one you should look into meaning, historical use and associations. Hope you find some inspiration. I cut & paste so just disregard any obvious undesirable names (like Romel which I'll remove)

Romola! There's a British actress with this name, and I think it's fabulous.

Rosamund is a heavy but lovely name, imo!
Second vote for Romola (Google Romola Garai, she's great!)

For the boys, there has been some great suggestions. Romin is particularly suave.
Romer is a surname name I've heard used and liked. Roam is another boys' name, meaning (predictably) 'one who wanders'
Rommel/ Romel- Very unusual. I can kind of imagine this on a little boy now. Comes across as very serious though, for some reason..
Romney- Welsh for 'curving river'. I love this one!

[harrietsmummy]

Romelia- This is gorgeous (I think)
Romia (Rom-ya)- A slightly Eastern European sounding one, this is. Roots in Latin/Hebrew/Romanian

@augusta_lee, I love Romola too! And the actress Romola Garai was the first I had heard of it.

Me too! I'm trying to get Romilly past committee (DH!) with "Romy" as nn.
In England, Romy is often sort for Rosemary.
Bartram, boys name could be shortened to Romy. Means "Glorious Raven" = maybe good for dark haired baby?
Bromley also has a strong "rom" - it means "bush covered meadow".

Good luck!

Rommel/ Romel- Very unusual. I can kind of imagine this on a little boy now. Comes across as very serious though, for some reason

sorry Rommel is too Nazi related to be usable IMO.

I like Roma and Romilly. I have a friend named Romilda, and I knew an elderly lady named Romaine but all I think of is lettuce
