I'm seeing a ton of them on here, and my little girl has at least two friends with that same name. It's a pretty name, but don't you want your child's name to be at least somewhat unique. Or, if not unique, at least not the same as 3 or 4 other girls in class?
I'm picturing my daughter's first-grade class having only girls named Rylee, Emily, Emma, Morgan and one or two others.

Yoohoo - I agree, and there are too many names ending in "aden", like Jaden, Baden, Caden, etc.

I agree. I believe what happens is it starts with Riley...then it manifests itself into Rylee, Ryleigh, Rylie, Ryelee, Ryley, etc. Before long we're inundated with variant forms of the original name (all sounding the same but with altered spellings).
It's like a "name disease"...it produces multiple strains of the same name but with an altered appearance, and it keeps on multiplying. Other names afflicted with the "disease" are Aidan, Kiley, Caitlin....oh, I could go on for days. Actually, any name traditionally ending in -en, -an, -ly, or -ey, is automatically susceptible to the "disease."
I believe some parents think they are keeping the name unique and fresh by simply changing the spelling.

My daughter is Rylie Alexandra. So Rylie is my first decision, I additionally like it spelt Riley, Rylee and Reilly. unquestionably Rylie nonetheless. stable good fortune! I wager human beings gave me a thumbs down because of the fact I named my daughter Rylie ;) and distinctive the idiots of the worldwide do no longer "approve" of anyone naming their daughters "male" names. HA, it is noted as unisex human beings! though it was once a surname and a male's call it truly is FOR the two NOW! And actually I like it on a woman. distinctive spellings do no longer define the baby the two. there is no longer something incorrect with spelling names in yet otherwise. i'm better than advantageous that names had to be made up by some ability interior the old age! as a result spelling and letters and working with them to place them into their positions!
