Don't like sorry

I know a Tallulah and she's cool, and cute, and takes no prisoners. Her name really suits her I think.

Love it. Also love Tabitha but have been banned from using that name if DC3 is a girl.

I have a Tallulah, it's a lovely name x

I know one and she is just gorgeous. Suits her. But then her siblings have unusual/fairly bohemian names too. She's mostly Lu or Lula though.

I don't like it myself. But then I like names like Eloise and Juliet just to put it in to context for you.

But actually it's a bit more than that. There's something a bit sexualised/slebby about it.

Saying that, if my parents had called me Tallulah I'd shorten it to Tal and life would go on I'm sure.

Tuschinski · 19/02/2011 10:57

yes

Trinaluce · 19/02/2011 10:57

Depends if you're intending to make her middle names 'Does The Hula From Hawaii'

Violethill · 19/02/2011 10:55

Not the worst name, but certainly not one of the best, either

ValLongstreet · 19/02/2011 10:54

I really don't like it.
