Because it's not a name and it sounds awful?

For a dog - a vegan beagle!!

rainbowstardrops · 07/04/2017 15:13

Why? Because it sounds like a cross between beagle and vegan.
Is it for a boy or a girl not that that would make a difference

Nah, not a fan. It sounds like beagle as in the dog and Beadle as in Jeremy!

I agree with PP's it sounds like a dog. Beagle.

It just sounds weird (in a bad way) to me, sorry.

If it is an Irish name I'd guess it's a surname. It would mean small one.

It just looks a bit comedic for some reason.

Vegan x beagle or Bega (town in Australia).

Is a person from Bega a Beagan?

I'm pretty sure people would hear "Vegan" as in "Hi, I'm vegan" and be thinking 'Erm that's nice, me too, but what's your actual name?'

Also too close to 'bogan' which is a type of Australian chav (sorry to sound judgemental there, not sure how else to explain).

Sorry OP.

Okay... Thanks for the opinions.

I don't mind opinions, but using this cross out feature to tell me it isn't a name is unnecessary and that I've made it up is unnecessary.

How is it pronounced? Is it like Reagan with a B (Bagan)? Or like Keegan (Beegan)? Or is it a Gaelic pronunciation so it's something like Bayvan (disclaimer - don't speak any Gaelic or Irish)? It's not familiar so looks odd.
