[Opinions] Bebelle

I was watching a Christmas decorating show on TLC with Genevieve Gorder (brother's name is Louis, what a great sib set!).

The thing that struck me is that her daughter's name is Bebelle. They were calling her Bea...

So do you think it's pronounce bee-belle or beb-elle? I am a little lost as to if I am going to like this name or not... I like the way it looks and I feel that I should like it, but no matter how much I roll it around in my mouth, I can't think of a way to like the pronunciation!

I can tollerate it as a nn for Belle, Bella, Isabel, Arabel, etc. but it's very childish and inconsistent as a full name, the sort given by parents who don't seem aware that their kid will be older than 5 some day.

Maybe it's more like beh-BEL or bay-BEL, like the Spanish word bebé. That's the only pronunciation that I could like even a little.

Otherwise it just sounds like Belle with a stutter.

I agree! It IS like Belle with a stutter!
