Bodhi...thoughts?

[FriggFRIGG]

For a boy.
I love the meaning...what does it make you think of when you first hear it?

[ChaosTrulyReigns]

Doyle.

[ChaosTrulyReigns]

Saying that - I think it;s a great sounding nane.

[YDdraigGoch]

Stocking

[stargirl1701]

Tree.

[ThePathanKhansWitch]

Buddha.

[PuggyMum]

Reminds me of Patrick Swayze in point break. I'm not sure many people will make the connection but i imagine a'surfer dude'.

I do quite like it though....

[FriggFRIGG]

Why Doyle chaosy? I'm feeling a little slow tonight....


And why stocking?

[BackforGood]

"...and Doyle" is what I was going to say too

Frigg - it's 'The Professionals'... you know, like Starsky and Hutch, or Dempsey and Makepeace. You just associate the 2 names together (although spelt Bodie)

[FriggFRIGG]

Ahh,I seeee...
but that's Bodie...not Bodhi...

[Silibilimili]

Buddhism. The bodhi tree is what Budha say under when he received enlightenment.

[ChaosTrulyReigns]

Friggy, drearest.

You sadi "when you first hear it?"

So, ner.

[FriggFRIGG]

Gah.
Fairy nuf then.

New question
What do you think of Bodhi when you first see it?

[ChaosTrulyReigns]

Still loike it.

Are you having a child?

[tipp2chicago]

Wasn't there a Bodhi in Home & Away?

[Viviennemary]

I'd think pardon what was that again. I'd think I had misheard.

[exexpat]

I'd think tree, Buddha etc, and also the name of a rather nice vegetarian restaurant I used to go to in Sydney. But to be honest it's not a name I'd want to lumber a child with - what if he isn't remotely serene and Buddha-like? And people will constantly mishear it as Brodie or want to spell it Bodie etc.

[FriggFRIGG]

Hmmm...


No chaosy I'm not pregloa yet just decided to TTC and over excited,names are probably my favorite bit about having DC...

I wanted to test the water with Bodhi here as I know the moment DP hears it,he'll be set on it he's a hippy

exexpat I knew i knew it from somewhere else! That was a bloody nice restaurant...

[FriggFRIGG]

I wonder if it's still open....
my DSIS lives in sydndey...and we are veggies...she'll think I've gone mental and named the baby after a restaurant

[exexpat]

It seems to be still going

[FriggFRIGG]

Awh shite.
That's out then

I'd never live it down.

[badtime]

Point Break.

[YDdraigGoch]

Is it pronounced as in "body", or as in "roadie"? Either way he'd be forever having to tell people how to spell and pronounce it.

[EmpressOfTheSevenOceans]

I wonder how to pronounce it.

[FriggFRIGG]

Boh-dee

(like roadie)

But it's been stricken off the list anyway...see above

[EmpressOfTheSevenOceans]

Yep, definitely Doyle then. Sorry Frigg.
