The meaning of Reese

Reese is an anglicized form of the Welsh name Rhys, says Behind the Name, and the actress Reese Witherspoon popularized it for girls. Rhys comes from the Old Welsh Ris, probably meaning “ardor, enthusiasm”, and was borne by several Welsh rulers, including the 12th-century Rhys ap Gruffydd, who fought the invading Normans.

Nicknames for Reese

Behind the Name lists Reece, Rees and Rhys as related forms. Behind the Name says Rhys also gave rise to Welsh surnames, including Rees, Reece and Rice. Reese is already short and bright, so it rarely needs a nickname.

Reese is also America’s peanut butter cup. Wikipedia says Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups were created on November 15, 1928, by H. B. Reese, a former dairy farmer and shipping foreman for Milton S. Hershey. He started his own candy business after Hershey let him go in 1919, when the barn he managed was shut down. Today the brand earns billions of dollars a year.

Who it’s for and ways to use it

This is a notebook for every kind of Reese: the student, the list-maker, the diary keeper, the busy mom. Its 160 lined pages and 6" x 9" format suit daily journaling, study, meal plans, goals or gratitude notes. Plain lines mean no rules about how to use it. Her name on the front makes it easy to spot on a crowded desk.

Why a name on the cover matters

Notebooks tend to multiply on desks and in drawers. One with Reese’s name on the front is instantly hers: easy to spot, harder to “borrow”, and more personal than a plain cover. For children especially, seeing their own name on something makes it special and encourages them to actually use it.
