That's where most people will think you got it - just like the suddenly all over the naming message boards Ginevra.

I love the name Bellatrix, esp. for its meaning, but for me, I can't seem to get the image of "female warrior". It just sounds like a rotten brat :-/. It still is a VERY nice name though

There's a great band around where I am from called Bellatrix. I think it's a really cool name.

Its not my usual style but I rather like the sound of this name it is a strong sounding name to me, Feminine but not cutsey.
However it is so strongly tied to the evil Bellatrix in Harry Potter that all I can see when I think of it is an evil darkhaied murderous Madwomen - sigh

I would go for
Grace Bellatrix & Maeve Lysandra?

I'm not a fan of Harry Potter names, Lord of the Rings names, Star Wards names etc. I just find them much too culty. And I think a Harry Potter name would really date your daughter, since there's no way it'll be such a craze in 20 years. However, Bellatrix does have quite a cool sound.

It works better as a middle name in my opinion. Something like Hannah Bellatrix, Sophia Bellatrix?

I'm complitely in love with this name. It sounds and looks gorgeous, it's got a great astrological backround, and the meaning is about as wonderful as it could get. I think the name Bellatrix would belong to a intelligent, determined person who is both strong and beautiful (just like the meaning says - a female warrior). IMO, it's one of the most beautiful names in the world.

I'd use Bellatrix as a first name anytime, but I don't like the mn Grace. I think it sounds too "nice" and too overused to be combined with the name Bellatrix. I do like the combo Maeve Lysandra, though - it matches with the name Bellatrix.

I think of the Bellatrix in the Harry Potter books, and she was a real cow.

Grace Bellatrix & Maeve Lysandra. I'm not big on Maeve and Grace, but I love Bellatrix and Lysandra.
Bellatrix has really been growing on me for the past few days.

I love Bellatrix i think its such a cool name and it really fits with my other more unusual names (Ludovic, Rubeus, Alair, Aloysius) but i dont think it fits at all with Maeve, Grace Bellatrix would fit
