Re: Beatrice/Beatrix
in reply to a message by Ames
I looove Beatrix, the x makes it seem funky and cute. And I think of Bellatrix, from Harry potter, who is evil but has an awesome name!
However, I also adore Beatrice. It seems more usable in today's world. Both names have the possibility of the nickname Bea, which I also love!
Both these names are very high on my list. I'd probablt only use Beatrice, but I think I actually like Beatrix better, so who knows! Not like I'm having kids any time soon, so that could change!
