How about Beatrix Lula? Liv Tyler called her daughter Lula Rose and I love it!

I like Claudia

I think Claudia means Lame

Urban myth territory. (Repeated in every sodding baby name book though, annoyingly.) It's a misunderstanding of the meaning and transmission of very early Latin family names and all guesswork.

I think Claudia means Lame so that would put me off plus the claud sound isnt very nice.
Beatrix (nn Bea or Trixie) Tallulah is such a beautiful and lovely sounding name.

Beatrix Tallulah

Tallulah is an unexpected middle, where as Beatrix is a little more traditional. Beatrix Tallulah gives you the best of both worlds so I'd say that one.

I don't think either first name goes with the middle name choice. I don't like Claudia as I think people are unsure which pronunciation to use. I also think Beatrice is prettier than Beatrix

That's a shame OP, I love Tallulah Beatrix.
I think Claudia goes better with Ottilie.🌸

I would be put of Claudia as I’m never sure how it’s pronounced. Is it Clawdia or Cloudia? I’ve heard it said both ways.

Claudia Beatrix

Beatrix Tallulah

FairyFantastic · 16/03/2018 04:04

Claudia Beatrix flows slightly better, but Beatrix is my favourite name of the two

Snobbles · 16/03/2018 01:23

Claudia is beautiful. Not crazy about Beatrix.

I've got a Beatrix & I really wanted her to be Beatrix Tallulah, but oh decided that he didn't think Tallulah was a real name (he's decided he quite likes it now though - knob head!) so definitely Beatrix Tallulah!

DiegoMadonna · 16/03/2018 00:54

I much prefer Beatrix to Claudia and don't really care about middle names, so my vote is for Beatrix Tallulah.

windchimesabotage · 16/03/2018 00:46

Beatrix Tallulah!

Love the name Tallulah.

chocatoo · 16/03/2018 00:46

All nice name but neither of the two sets of two flow in my opinion. There are too many syllables. A 3 syllable name goes well with a 1 syllable name I think

Beatrix Tallulah

Snakie · 16/03/2018 00:33

Beatrix Tallulah

SuperBeagle · 16/03/2018 00:31

Claudia, because I don't like Beatrix.

HuskyMcClusky · 16/03/2018 00:11

Claudia. I don’t like Beatrix or Beatrice.

IdblowJonSnow · 16/03/2018 00:10

Love Bea, Beatrice or Beatrice- and Claudia but not together? Dislike Tallulah.

IVflytrap · 16/03/2018 00:03

I like Beatrix Tallulah.

RockafellerSkank · 15/03/2018 23:37

Beatrix

toffee1000 · 15/03/2018 22:51

Claudia Beatrix flows better, to me.
