Well Beau is male, so for that reason... I'm out
🙄

My friend has a daughter called Beau. She keeps getting it written Bo.

Stick an e on the end to feminize it.

Sounds like the French for balloon !!

Greysowhat · 09/10/2025 20:13

I like Beau. I like Lilah. But Beau-Lilah.... nah

honeylulu · 09/10/2025 20:12

Ghastly.

Beau is a male name, French for handsome.
Hyphen, yuck, just no.

Lilah ... too many spelling/pronunciation hazards.
Overall, too try-to-hard yooneek and chavtastic.

ERthree · 09/10/2025 20:05

Sounds like a name from a porn movie.

TheHillIsMine · 09/10/2025 20:02

It jars with the h on the end apart from all the other obvious issues with it.

Thatcannotberight · 09/10/2025 20:01

WestwardHo1 · 09/10/2025 20:00

Was this an attempt at a Balonz thread?

Bloody awful. They'll never get a job interview (unless the job is a stripper)

WestwardHo1 · 09/10/2025 20:00

Was this an attempt at a Balonz thread?

GaIadriel · 09/10/2025 19:56

I'd probs rather be called Beau-Selecta. 🤣

Toadetta · 09/10/2025 19:56

This instantly made me think of the jungle book, and after a few mins realised it sounds like a combination of baloo and bagera

Anyway, I wouldn't

3isthemagicnumber3 · 09/10/2025 19:53

It sounds like you are blowing a raspberry with a very big, wet tongue.

PinkyFlamingo · 09/10/2025 19:53

You actually can't be serious? You must be on the wind up 😂

Bumdrops · 09/10/2025 14:10

Honestly that’s the chavviest name I’ve seen / heard for a while -

OP - what are your thoughts ?

Again, first post nails it. It’s awful.

PurpleChrayn · 09/10/2025 19:48

Awful. Beau is masculine.

Hyphens are chavvy.

BitOutOfPractice · 09/10/2025 19:48

another shit and run thread?

Though judging by the totally justifiably harsh responses I’m not surprised.

@w9828971 it’s a terrible name. Truly awful.

RaininSummer · 09/10/2025 19:48

I'm sorry but it doesn't even sound nice.
