What do you think of the name Bellamy for a girl?

CushyBaby

Any middle name suggestions?

hmmm, honestly I don't love it. But I would stick to a simple middle name if you go for it. Ann or Grace.

BizEB

Yuck, I hate it.

Lilystar82

Completely NMS at all. But I agree with Bex - you will need a simple middle name.

ETA: It reminds me of Bill Bellamy.

I think it sound 100% made up.

Crazy  two first names pushed together

what about Amy Bell

BizEB:

Yuck, I hate it.

These were my thoughts exactly.

I had not heard the name before, but apparently it is a boy name, if anything. It is of French origin and means "handsome friend". So I would definitely not name a little girl that.

It actually reminds me of Bill Bellamy, some c-list comedian I wouldn't name any kid after.

I actually think it's cute. Have you heard of the new show on Bravo called 9 by Design? They have a daughter name Bellamy so I wonder if it might become a little more well known?!

I know it from 9 by Design too.  On that show, they say it "Bah-la-me".. rhymes with salami. I don't love that pronunciation.  I prefer "Bell-ah-me" (yes, as in Bill Bellamy, the MTV veejay...).  I think it's cute.

Aww... for some reason I love love love this name, but I think DH would laugh at me if I suggested it. Even though I love it, I know it's a little strange- but I don't think it's really as horrible as pp's have made it sound. With all the ridiculous names out there, I doubt it would get your kid beat up on the playground.

Not my style.

pp- I dont think its "made up", its a last name I have heard before. I went to Bellamy Elementary School when I was little! I think it sounds more like a boy name than a girl name.

JayKay2387

It's nms, but I agree with pp's, the middle name would need to be simple. Grace, Ann, etc.

CushyBaby

Thanks to everyone for their input.  We aren't 100% sold on it yet and I didn't know it was on that show.  It holds a special meaning for us because it is a name that is well known in our hometown and we are from the south.  I thought it sounded very southern and cute when I heard it.

I like it.

mcmann05

I really like it but it will more than likely get shortened to Bella, which I adore.

::shrugs:: I went to Crestview Middle school and Ellisville Elementary School.  Doesn't mean I'd use that name for my kid.

karen_loy
