Tallulah

[KAEKAE]

Right...don't laugh!

I really love the name Tallulah! I've loved it for years, but in recent years a few celebs have used it, which to me has made it a celeb/chav name?! So, it has slightly put me off.

What are your thoughts, however harsh! Oh the Bugsy Malone thing doesn't bother me! rofl.

[botherednanny]

I think its a dinky name - but it always reminds me of that bit in 'cool runnings'

"lets call it tallulah... it was my mothers name"

but I do think its a cute little name thou

[unknownrebelbang]

I know a little girl named Tallulah and I ALWAYS start singing "my name is...." from Bugsy to myself every time I see her.

[Reginaphilangy]

I don't like it. Sorry.

[LuLuMacGloo]

We have a Tallulah at dd's school. She's not chavvy - more pseudo arty. If you like it for it - you'll only regret it if you don't.

[unknownrebelbang]

I'm singing it now...

[KAEKAE]

lol as I say I really don't mind the bugsy Molone connection at all. Sing away!
I always tend to think of Tallulah Bankhead....not sure if that's such a good thing though! lmao.

I like it, i think it is lovely

[thumbwitch]

I remember years ago reading about a model who had sex-changed from boy to girl - and as a girl had changed her name to Tallulah - that would put me off but no reason it should affect your choice!

[strummer]

Great name, I like it.
Just don't call her - Talula Does The Hula From Hawaii!

[sunshineonarainyday]

It's cute, I like it

[Tommy]

I don't like it at all I'm afraid - but if you like it, go for it

[Buda]

There is a Tallulah at DS's school - head's DD in fact. She is also known at Tilly and Luly.

[Buda]

Oh - and I think it is quite cute.

[iwantasecondone]

It was on my short list til I married someone with an unsuitable surname for it. Lovely!

[Majeika]

I like it

and there are lots of nnames for it too

[FairLadyRantALot]

Tallulah will always make me think of Maisie Mouse

[ethanchristopher]

i know an emo tallulah

who is an attention seeker and cuts her wrists and has carved "fat" into her belly

im sure they arent all like this tho...

[giraffescantdancethetango]

I know quite a few Tallulahs (nursery age chuildren) if you like it go for it.

[frankbestfriend]

Tallulah is a lovely name with endless potential for nice nick names, especially Tally which I think is fab for an older girl.

[MrsMattie]

It's a bit of a 'stage name'.

I'd feel sorry for a chubby/unattaractive/tomboyish/bookish/plain etc etc Tallulah. It's very glamourous and camp.

[wellbalanced]

Ive looked after 2 Tallulah's which puts me off the name but i also am not keen.

[lou33]

dd2 is a tallulah daisy

[frazzledoldbag34]

I quite like it. Not sure I'd use it myself but I think it's pretty. And agree - short names like Luly, Lulu, Lula, Tally etc are nice if Talulah becomes a bit of a mouthful.
If you've always loved it, then just DO IT!
Your baby, your name.

her friends call her lula
