Talulah

Or Tallulah? What do you think of this name? I adore it but my mum says it's a stripper name. I know two Tallulah's, one in her twenties and one in her teens. Both are lovely, sweet girls from cool arty families and I think this has made me unable to see the stripper thing? The only famoie Tallulah's I can think of are Riley and Willis and neither of them is stripper-ish either. Am I the only one who has positive connotations with this name? Works beautifully with my husband's culture as well and we were keen for a name that would work in both cultures.

Probably go for something more classic as a middle name like Violet or Beatrice. Would this work?

Thoughts, anyone?

I love the name Tallulah. Always have. I’d go for it.

It’s a no from me, and I would wonder what the child’s Parents were thinking. If you must use it, at least spell it correctly which is Tallulah.

I tally like Tallulah, our Labrador was called Tallulah but I’d still use it!

I love it!

My DM said "if you name that baby Tallulah, I'll never talk to you again" 😁 (said in her 'telephone hyacinth bucket voice!) DM died 7 years ago, DD is 10 with the middle name Tallulah. I adore it, but loved DM so didn't want to risk it (tongue in cheek)!

We named our cat Tallulah. I kind of love it - wouldn't name a child that myself but have at it, it's pretty and fun and rather glam.

I like it! If your dd doesn't she can just go by Lu. What about delilah? I think that has a similar sound/feel to it.

Great name for a cat or a guinea pig.

Ok for a toddler.

Not so great for a woman.
