Help[Opinions] Re: Bo and Beau
in reply to a message by Bear
I only like it on a boy but I don't love it. I like Bo better. I don't know why I just really don't like how Beau looks. I definitely picture southern hick but that's probably the only reason I do like it because those are my roots. I think it seems too short to be a full name but I have never found any full name I like for it. For some reason Beau seems more like a full name instead of Bo which is weird. I can't think of any combinations that sound okay either with it being the first name but I think it can work as a middle name once in a while.

That's what held me back from liking Bo too, that it looks incomplete. It wasn't until I poked around here at BtN that I found it was an actual name. "Yay," said I. "I can like it now and still consider myself all educatedish and lofty."
But then I did this thread and it turns out this classic name (Bo) is pronounced differently than I thought. "Oh, no," said I. "Now I'll have to think about this. Will I ignore that which is inconvenient in order to continue my new-found love affair with Bo?" Of course I will. :-)
Anyway, thanks for your input. I too went back and forth on the spelling. And I never really liked the Beau spelling either, except in Isabeau. But that's a different gender / thread. This Beau / Bo thing is complicated enough.
:-D
