Help[Opinions] How do you pronounce "Bijou" and a naming question...
BIJOU
Gender: Feminine
Usage: English
Means "jewel" in French.
How is this pronounced in French? I assume it's a noun, since it's called an English name, but that doesn't matter because I'm naming a bird. :) Any other girly suggestions for a dainty, feminine blue parrotlet would be appreciated! I'm also thinking of Arabella.

I believe Pavlos' answer is the correct one.

Thanks, Lillian.
Wasn't sure where to put it, since I'm asking for suggestions as well. Looks like the way I heard it in my head was correct. Sooo.... Got any frilly girls' names?
