Just wondering what everyone thinks of these two names and what sort of connotation they have, if any. According to this site,
Beatrix has never been popular, and
Beatrice has gone down steadily throughout the century.
Do they sound old-fashioned in a good or bad way? Does
Beatrice remind you of
Dante?
Which of the two do you prefer? I love
Beatrix, with the possible nn
Bea. There's something about the X that I find really cool, but I don't know why.
