please be honest

my OH really really really wants to call our LO bodhi (body, bodie). he's a big fan of surfer film point break and patrick swayze is in it called bodhi. it means peacefull warrior. i'm very doubtfull our surname is allen..please give your honest opinion

 

[Minxy]

I actually quite like it, but I think he'll spend his whole life telling people he's not called Brodi

And unless he explains the Point Break reference, people will assume you're Professionals fans

But there are much wackier names out there, and if you both like it you should go for it. It has a beautiful meaning

I think its ok, not a name id choose though

 

[beanie]

I like it, think it goes well with your surname

 

[evemarie8]

I really like it too, its not too unusual, just don't let the older generations put you off if they pull the chewing a wasp face when you tell them it! Trust me they do it to all the slightly different names, they cant help themselves!

 

[nickilubs]

Yay I like it

 

[Lola's Mummy]

I do like it but like Minxy said i think he will spend his life telling people he's not called Brodi.

I think i personally would maybe use it as a middle name

 

[Miss.Monroe]

i really like it, ive never heard it before, and it sounds lovely.

 

[budge]

god i must be on a different planet from you lot its awful

bodhi is bad enought by itself but then add it to the surname

'bodhi allen'

It sounds like a laxative

 

[MagicMarkers]

It taken a couple of times readint his post before i thought to comment but i actually quite like it now, although he might end up as little bod which might be a bit strange, maybe little boh, thats pretty damn cute !

Doesnt sound much like a laxative to me though

 

[paiges_mummy]

sorry I dont like it

 

[hennaly]

i think its ok but bet he gets called bogi at school.

 

[Riot_Grrrl]

i think its ok but bet he gets called bogi at school.

[Beth88]

i dont like it sorryyyyy

 

[Foxxi]

I think its ok

 

[bobby1]

I might be being a bit silly, but how do you pronounce it is it like brodie but without an r or like body?
I actually like both of the pronounciations
