Bodhi...thoughts?

[FriggFRIGG]

For a boy.
I love the meaning...what does it make you think of when you first hear it?

Doyle.

Saying that - I think it;s a great sounding nane.

Stocking

Tree.

Buddha.

Reminds me of Patrick Swayze in point break. I'm not sure many people will make the connection but i imagine a'surfer dude'.

I do quite like it though....

Why Doyle chaosy? I'm feeling a little slow tonight....

And why stocking?

"...and Doyle" is what I was going to say too

Frigg - it's 'The Professionals'... you know, like Starsky and Hutch, or Dempsey and Makepeace. You just associate the 2 names together (although spelt Bodie)

Ahh,I seeee...
but that's Bodie...not Bodhi...

Buddhism. The bodhi tree is what Budha say under when he received enlightenment.

Friggy, drearest.

You sadi "when you first hear it?"

So, ner.

Gah.
Fairy nuf then.

New question
What do you think of Bodhi when you first see it?

Still loike it.

Are you having a child?

Wasn't there a Bodhi in Home & Away?

I'd think pardon what was that again. I'd think I had misheard.

I'd think tree, Buddha etc, and also the name of a rather nice vegetarian restaurant I used to go to in Sydney. But to be honest it's not a name I'd want to lumber a child with - what if he isn't remotely serene and Buddha-like? And people will constantly mishear it as Brodie or want to spell it Bodie etc.

Hmmm...

No chaosy I'm not pregloa yet just decided to TTC and over excited,names are probably my favorite bit about having DC...

I wanted to test the water with Bodhi here as I know the moment DP hears it,he'll be set on it he's a hippy

exexpat I knew i knew it from somewhere else! That was a bloody nice restaurant...

I wonder if it's still open....
my DSIS lives in sydndey...and we are veggies...she'll think I've gone mental and named the baby after a restaurant

It seems to be still going

Awh shite.
That's out then

I'd never live it down.

Point Break.

Is it pronounced as in "body", or as in "roadie"? Either way he'd be forever having to tell people how to spell and pronounce it.

I wonder how to pronounce it.

Boh-dee

(like roadie)

But it's been stricken off the list anyway...see above

Yep, definitely Doyle then. Sorry Frigg.
