Beatrix

[TheRealMBJ]

nn Bea. What do you think?

Lovely was on my list for dc 2 but he was a he! But I would spell Beatrice

Love Beatrix, a refreshing change from Beatrice

LOVE love love!! DH not keen [stomp] [stomp]

I like the fact that Beatrix is the more 'original' Latin form.

We would probably choose between Anna or Georgina for middle name. My choice would be Anna.

Or Beatrix Grace?

I far prefer Beatrice. Beatrix too tied up with Potter in my mind.

Beatrix Georgina for me, but only the X ending at a push because I like the softer CE sound more.

Yes I like it. I know one known as Trixie but not really sure if I like this NN or not.

DD is a Beatrice Annabelle, nn Bea

I liked both Beatriz and Beatrix as well, DH and I had a debate about it that lasted weeks. We just didn't like Trixie as a nn and my family being what they are would call her that to annoy me.

We love her name and Bea suits her so.

I'm not a fan of girls names beginning with B, sounds harsh to me. Also don't like the X for the same reason.

Love Beatrice, not fond of Beatrix, but you've already decided on that.

I prefer Anna to Georgina, but it depends what your surname is. Because if the initials spelled out BAG or BAP etc it might be a bit unfortunate.

I think it's lovely. Like the nn too - good for a little girl and a grown up woman. Middle name I prefer Grace but 'ain't going to encourage it as it is our choice too :o

Right so DD's surname will start with a 'W' (she'll get her Dad's surname, like DS did- I've kept my own)

Would Beatrix Anna be acceptable? BAW isn't bad, is it?

I think that sounds lovely TheRealMBJ

Do you like it??

God, I just realised how pathetic that sounded .

I do like it . I think I have decided, now just to convince DH.

Love Beatrix. It was on our list, but we went for Beatrice in the end, nn Betty.

Beatrix is my absolute favourite name, ever!!

Beatrix Anna is just divine... I couldn't because my surname begins with G - for the same reason that I cant use Alice (one of my other favourite names)

The middle name I love for my fictitional DD is Beatrix Milly G_ (I love the 3-2-1 syllable formation and Milly honours my gran)

Good luck!!

I prefer Beatrice. The "trix" is a bit, er, dominatrix.
