Don't some people use it as a name for lady/girly bits Hmm

I think you can only pull it off if you're very posh Grin

I don't like it, sorry. Just doesn't sound like a real name - too frilly.

Not against trendy names and think they suit the children they are given to. But I just feel trendy names are cute for a little one but I can't imagine an old person called Tallulah. Its strange to picture old people homes of the future with residents called Jayden, Kai, Harrison, Tallulah, Etc.

That name conjures up an image of a hooker to me. Sorry!

I have a tallulah rose and everyone loves her name. If you read up on its meaning/origin it's very interesting.

And fwiw I've never heard of a hooker called tallulah. They normally have boring names like Julie.

I rather like it, although Jodie Foster / Bugsy Malone was my automatic association, too! (Great film, so that's a positive, IMO).

Would depend a lot on the combination with middle name(s) and surname, I think. Probably not Talulah/ Tallulah Amaryllis Fotherington-Smythe, for example... Wink

But, yes, it's pretty. And Lulu/ Lou/ Lula are cute NNs.

Yes it's lovely ! I teach a Tallulah and all her friends call her Lula which I love.

Honestly I think it sounds like a pets name. However it is a pretty and unusual name and maybe the child could make it her own. Not sure if i'd spell it with one l or two.
