What do you all think of the name Beulah? It's an older female name. I like it, mostly because there's a now defunct band by the same name. The only reason why I wouldn't name a kid that is because the only nickname I can think of is Bella, and our friends just had a baby and named her Bella.



I don't know if anyone visits this, but they play create-a-family and create-a-classroom with their favorite names.
I think this community would love these games. :D Here's a template that I stole from there:

I know I've doubled up on some names, and the parents name I have made more common names and most of them aren't on my favourites list, as realistically most of them would have more common/conservative names :P

I think Beulah is extremely old-fashioned, but not in a old-ladyish way like Edna and Thelma are... mostly because I've never met or even heard of a real-life Beulah. You might be able to get away with it. Personally, I think it's loads better than Bella - you'd probably run into pronunciation issues though.

Game sounds fun, I'll have to do it tomorrow.

As for Beulah, it was my grandmother's name. Way too old fashioned for my tastes.

Beulah.. uhm I have a really close friend who goes by her middle name because her name is Beulah Janiel. Though we like certain names, consider the child's feelings. it's not a common name, and it has that older style ring to it, and quite frankly, my friend HATES her name. I wouldn't name a child that and neither would she.
