As the title says quite like the simplicity of the name but not sure everyone will share the love. What do you think?

Beau? Or actually 'Bo'?

daisypond · 28/02/2020 19:35

Just no.

JustAnotherQuestion101 · 28/02/2020 19:35

My daughter's friend is called Bo. Never been questioned. Lovely name. They are age 8/9 now

MunaZaldrizoti · 28/02/2020 19:36

No

Spanneroo · 28/02/2020 19:36

As in body odour?

northernlittledonkey · 28/02/2020 19:37

Mydogatemypurse · 28/02/2020 19:38

Bo selecta

Mummyeyes · 28/02/2020 19:38

As in Face of Bo in Dr Who?

I like it.

Aquamarine1029 · 28/02/2020 19:38

Beau is much nicer.

DramaAlpaca · 28/02/2020 19:39

It's Swedish, I think.

I'm not keen on it, it's a bit too short & blunt.

sleepytimebaby · 28/02/2020 19:39

See I always thought Beau was more a boys name.

No.

sleepytimebaby · 28/02/2020 19:40

And the body odour thing that someone said above does worry me a little

Like Bo Peep Smile

Bó is cow in the Irish language.

Beamur · 28/02/2020 19:41

Bo Derek. Famous actress in the 1980's?
It's a woman's name.
I actually like this spelling more than Beau - which I would think is a boys name.

catinb0oots · 28/02/2020 19:42

I think Ulrika Johnssan had a kid called Bo. Can't remember if it was a boy or a girl but I like it

Surfer25 · 28/02/2020 19:42

A colleague named his dd this

We all said body odour

ShowOfHands · 28/02/2020 19:42

DEFINITELY not Beau. May as well call her Dave. Beau is NOT a name for a girl.

I quite like Bo actually.

Mamabear88 · 28/02/2020 19:42

Beau is a male name. Bo just makes me think little bo peep lost her sheep. It's a no from me.

Sagradafamiliar · 28/02/2020 19:42

I know of 2 (and a Boe)

Beamur · 28/02/2020 19:42

Bo Peep Grin

user1493494961 · 28/02/2020 19:43

It's a no for Bo. It doesn't seem like a name to me, more of a sound.
