I love the name Carys but please don't call her Carrie. It turns a beautiful, unique name into ho-hum, plain-Jane.

Carys is so georgeous. I love it spelled this way especially.

Good Luck.

Hi! I couldn't vote because I like them all, but I prefer it spelled Karis or Karys. Also, love the name Karissa!

Good luck,

I voted for Carys, since that is my favorite spelling of that name, but I wanted to mention that I have a cousin (she's 24) named Karis. I'd never heard of anyone else with that name until I was older and started seeing it as "Carys" and "Charis" (the Ch spelling really doesn't do it for me - I automatically think of the 'ch' as in 'church' sound and it reminds me of the word char(red)). Good luck with whatever you decide - it is very unique and pretty name!
