Thoughts?

OP posts:
Are your children’s vaccines up to date?
MeEspresso · 09/10/2025 17:53

Beau-Narnah is another contender

ToWhitToWhoo · 09/10/2025 17:53

Not ideal; she will have to deal constantly with people's problems in spelling it.

MeEspresso · 09/10/2025 17:54

Beau-naiise? Beau-Nese-Mountain-Dawg?

MeEspresso · 09/10/2025 17:56

beau-bee-one-kenobe?

UnctuousUnicorns · 09/10/2025 17:56

Beau Ness has a nice ring to it.

Honestly that’s the chavviest name I’ve seen / heard for a while -

OP - what are your thoughts ?

This!

MeEspresso · 09/10/2025 17:56

Beau-Jangle anyone?

CautiousLurker01 · 09/10/2025 17:57

Even if the two names were okay (Beau is def a boys name, the feminine is Belle, obvs), naming convention tends to be 2syllable-1 syllable: Peggy-Sue, Sally-Anne, Mary-Lou etc.

If Op loves Lilah, then something Lilah-Jane, Lilah-Mae, or even Lilah-Belle sticking with the Beau theme might work.

Beau-Selecta has a nice ring to it
Or
Beau-pas?

MeEspresso · 09/10/2025 17:57

Harrii-Beau is another great name

on a roll here

ToWhitToWhoo · 09/10/2025 17:57

Why not Leila or Delilah (though the latter may be too associated with the Tom Jonwes song)? Or even Belinda - a bit old-fashoned but worthy of a comeback- or Bella? Beau is a boy's name.

timoteigirl · 09/10/2025 17:57

I'm sorry but it sounds like the type of name a toddler could give their dolly.

TessSaysYes · 09/10/2025 17:58

Beau is for a male. At least go for Belle. Still awful 🤣

What is it with mumsnet and the word chavy? It's so derogatory.

Shinybrightdarling · 09/10/2025 18:04

Lilah Belle is better.

WhitePudding · 09/10/2025 18:04

Yes if they are going to be a child actor on Eastenders.

Beau-Tox Grin

Surely you’d spell that “Beau-Toxhe”? So much prettier 😍

Chazbots · 09/10/2025 18:05

It's a bit Dukes of Hazzard to me as an old person.

Crossed with a lilo...

CeciliaMars · 09/10/2025 18:06

It’s awful.

Timeforabitofpeace · 09/10/2025 18:07

Yikes.

OSTMusTisNT · 09/10/2025 18:07

Sorry but that is the exact sound I make when spewing.

Edited

I knew it was a familiar sound - now I know why !! 🤣🤮🤣

ImogenBrocklehurst · 09/10/2025 18:13

Usually I would say pick a name you love because you’ll always find someone who’ll dislike it.

But I’m struggling with this one…

Remember Bread ? Not too far from Lilo Lil !!

Bikergran · 09/10/2025 18:13

Absolutely awful. Impossible for people to spell, sounds chavvy and could possibly affect her employment prospects in future years.
