I like it. There’s also Brodie which is very popular in Scotland at the moment

Is it pronounced like Body?

Bodhi from Point Break! Great character (played by Patrick Swayze) but not sure I'd name my kid after them although I've heard worse.

I'm so old it reminds me of Bodie as in Bodie and Doyle from the 70s TV programme Professionals

I think it sounds very pretentious, sorry. Unless it is specifically linked to the child's own cultural heritage.

I'm old so I always think of the 70's TV show the Professionals with Bodie and Doyle charging around in a fab Capri when I hear this name

I know a little boy called this. Not my taste but he is a very sweet little thing.

Chloe Madeley and James Haskell just named their baby daughter Bodhi so I think it's a girl's or unisex name? May become more popular now as a result, not sure if that bothers you...

Chloe Madely has just named her daughter this, not my cup of tea tbh.

Surf's up dude. It's a cute name.
Isn't one of Meghan Fox's kids called this?
I don't know anyone in real life called Bodhi.

It’s the name of the tree which Buddha is said to have been sitting under when he achieved enlightenment
