Beatrice or Beatrix

[3boysgirlontheway]

Do you like either?
Which do you prefer?

NN Bea :-)

[belgo]

Prefer Beatrice. Beatrix is a little too try hard.

[jaffacakehips]

I can't pick..love them both {not helpful i know}

Beatrice is very popular at the moment so Beatrix might be a good choice.

Are you going to have a mn {noisy}

[3boysgirlontheway]

MN is going to be Harriet Primrose (I have so many names I want to use)

[SoFarWeAreEqual]

Beatrice is lovely, and softer than Beatrix. The latter makes me think dominatrix, sorry.

[jaffacakehips]

Well in that case: Beatrice Harriet Primrose is just divine and flows much better than Beatrix imo. And after 3 boys..very girly, i like!!

[Polkadotfanatic]

Beatrix is beautiful and not too try hard at all IMO, however, with your middle names, Beatrice is nicer (what jaffacakehips said) :) Good luck...

[Montsti]

I love both. Beatrice more popular but "safer" in a way if that makes sense...

[diedandgonetodevon]

I love them both, but Beatrice goes better with the lovely middle names.

[PopcornBiscuit]

Beatrice - elegant and classic.

Beatrix - Beatrix Potter or dominatrix

[lisaro]

Beatrice - my lovely late Aunty. If I'd had a daughter that would have been the name, until it became too popular around here.

[RobinSparkles]

Beatrice Harriet Primrose

[SoupDragon]

Beatrice.

Beatrix just awful.

[ThePoorMansBeckySharp]

Beatrice PLEASE.

So much prettier.

[TuesdayNightClub]

I love Beatrix. I think it is much more interesting and far prettier than Beatrice. Harriet and Primrose are lovely MNs.

[Beamur]

Beatrice is pretty and elegant and Bea is a lovely NN.
Beatrix is a bit edgier.
Like them both though. There's a clue in my MN name..

Love Beatrix. We have one, but we call her Betty.

[CharlieBoo]

Beatrice is beautiful and classic

[dementedma]

Beatrice. Every time!

[EmmaNicole]

I really like both. I have a Beatrice (went for that as thought it was "softer") but on reflection I think they are both as nice. Beatrice seems to be fairly popular according to MN but I've never met another. My DD's nn is Bea-Bea; she's only 2 so it's ok for now. Think Bea will be more appropriate when she's a teenager!
