Beatrix

[sibbys]

Thoughts?

I like it. Its a little more uncommon than Beatrice, and has a stronger feel to it.

It’s nice. The only person I know called that in RL had a speech impediment that meant she couldn’t say her own name properly.

Dutch.

Love it!

I find it a very clunky name, almost hard to say. I can't find anything redeeming about the name.

I personally don't like it. It feels robotic/futuristic maybe I'm associating with Matrix but no.

I love it. More unusual than Beatrice, but you can still shorten to Bee/Bea.

I hope you like Peter Rabbit though.

Love it. Great name, like Trixie for a nn. Love.

Love it!

It’s a nice name, for some reason I really prefer Beatrice but there’s nothing wrong with Beatrix. I think it’s quite unusual, I’ve never met one.

I love it. DS would probably have been Beatrix if he'd been a girl.

I like the name but struggle to pronounce it correctly.. I don’t know why either as it’s obviously a well known name! Probably just me. Is it meant to sound like Bee-a-trix / Beer-trix / Bee-trix?

I think it's a really ugly name

I love Beatrice but Beatrix reminds me of the old fashioned way of feminising a noun. In Jane Eyre she
refers to herself as an interlocutrix, for instance (as opposed to interlocutor has she been male).

The only version of this we currently seem to use these days is Dominatrix. Hopefully this wouldn't be an issue.

Lovely!

Lovely name.
And as an aside, as a child it’s really cool having a z or an x in your name

Love it and wanted to use it but DH put kibosh on as he knew a weird one when he was younger. Do it!!

It's not a name you hear much but I do like it the x just makes it that bit different sounding from Beatrice and you have the Beatrix Potter connection, always a winner!

It's Latin.

I love it and love the nn Bea even more

I like it, much more than Beatrice.

It’s classic but not overly used, really lovely!

I know one
Called trixy

I love it! Loved it since I heard it on call the. Midwife (trixie). I also like bea for short. I much prefer it to Beatrice.

Lovely
