Betelgeuse

The pronunciation is weird, but this is the name of a star! What’s not to like about that?

Can't ever think of it the same because of Beetlejuice.

My first thought when I stumbled upon this name was "That's where Ford Prefect is from!" I didn't even make the Beetlejuice connection until I read some other comments. Anyways, I'm personally not a fan of this name. It's awkward, it looks weird on paper, and it just makes me think of The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, not a person.

I like this name for some odd reason. Probably because it reminds me of my dad. I remember him pointing out the star Betelgeuse to me and telling me its name, and I started giggling because it was so funny. *sigh* those were the days.

Yuck. It immediately makes me think of Beetlejuice, and it also sounds like another name that cult members would name their kid.

This is the vilest name I have ever seen.

I have a cousin with this as a middle name, among others. My family's nuts, though. I'd never inflict this on a child. It's awful. But I love "Beetlejuice." Such a fun movie.

Mwahaha, this name is so funny. I think I'd burst a vein in my head if I heard a parent shout: ''Betelgeuse, come here!'' Something tells me Beetlejuice is going to be a cult classic of a kind for a long time to come, and even if that doesn't happen, the name sounds like 'beetle juice', for crying out loud. Not the nicest possible mental image, ha ha.

My aunt came SOOOOOOOO close to naming my youngest cousin Beetlejuice! I told her think about the tease factor and she remembered the movie!

"Beetlejuice, Beetlejuice, Beetlejuice!" Yeah, definitely don't use this name.

Do not under any circumstances name your son this unless you want him to have a miserable elementary school career.
