Can I run a few girls names by you?

tovachava

I would love some opinions/votes on my names.  We are pretty settled on the middle name, but aren't telling anyone IRL, so I thought I'd ask here.  Thanks![Poll]

Can't vote.  I really don't like any of those names. Sorry.

Ha-no problem.  That is exactly why we are not telling people in real life. I know we have slightly ecentric taste.

I voted for Beatrix.  I love it.  I think Willa is very cute, too.

I dont love any of them but I voted for Beatrix. Would you call her Bea? Thats pretty cute.

I think Willa is the one I like the best. Beatrix reminds me of the crazy woman from Harry Potter and I think Lilla would get mispronounced all the time (and I think it sounds funny).

Willa is really nice and uncommon but not unusual so I like it.  Sorry, but I have to give a big to Beatrix.  If my parents named me that, I would hate them lol.  Lilla is okay I guess, but Lily is better.

I like Beatrix and Willa.

Willa Rose!

Willa is amazing, I've never heard it until now, but I love it! Very unique, super classy!

Lilla is pretty, but I prefer Lily.?

How about Beatrice Rose? I love that. I like Lily or Lilian but not Lilla. Willa is nms.

Ditto.  I was sitting here trying to figure out which of the three I dislike the least and just decided not to vote.

Beatrix Potter! Love it :-)

I have a friend named Beatrice (she's French - actually lives in France) and it's pronounced Bay-ah-treece and her friends call her Bea - Bay-ah. 

I like it. 

Also - when I tell people the names we've chosen (not on here - my potential name list causes enough fun) I preface it with "we've decided. Start learning to love it." And then I give a big cheesy smile.

That was "Bellatrix"

Completely different.

I voted for Beatrix, but I like Willa, too.  Trixie is an adorable nn for when she's little.

None...the only thing I like would be Lyla Rose...even though your cousin used it.

KateLouise

I really like Willa.

I hate Beatrix but love Bea and Trix as nicknames.

I don't like Lilla but like Lila, Isla, Leah, Mia, Maya, Eva, Nina, Cilla?

I'm sitting here unable to sleep (lol) so I was thinking about your name choices again and thought of another one you might like- Lilia.  Like the famous Olympic gymnast Lilia Podkopayeva (pronounced Lily-uh).  Much better than Lilla I think but still along the same line. I think it's beautiful!

tovachava

Thanks, ladies.  I never thought my choices were so unusual.  But then again I'm a teacher so I have had some kids with crazy names over the years.  I definitely don't think of belatrix lestrange with Beatrix.  That is pretty funny though.  Beatrix is Dh's favorite by far.  I like Willa, but not as much as he likes Beatrix.  I think both bea and Trixie could be cute nicknames.  There are a few others in the running.  Maybe I'll post again when we narrow it down more.
