Beau - How to say it?

[tinkerbellkir]

I would pronounce as Bow too x

Ha -- until this past year i had always thought it was pronounced like the first part of "beau"tiful.... But i learned from all the wise BnB ladies that it's actually pronounced like "bow"....

I have never known anyone with this name... have only seen it in print...

Seems all names are becoming unisex anymore... so i think Beau would be just fine for a baby girl... even if it's typically used for boys...

I love it for a little girl but not for a boy xx

Hey ladies, i googled it last night and although Beau is masculine in french it says that you can spell it this way for a girl too.

I think the spelling "beau" is much better than "Bo" for the reasons I stated in my first post about this name.

I don't want to call my little girl Beau though if later in life someone tells her she has a boys name!! Though saying that you can be a boy or girl and be called "Leigh, Tony...."
