Tallulah

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.

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!

I like it, i think it is lovely

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'm singing it now...

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.

I don't like it. Sorry.

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

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
