Personally, I think it's really stupid. By all means, name somebody Rainbow if you must. It's not my style, but rainbows are beautiful colourful happy natural things that are really cool.
But Reign Beau is two completely different words. Obviously they are referring to 'rainbow', but 'reign' and 'beau' mean something completely else... it's like Sun and Son, or Flee and Flea... it's the very spelling of those words that distinguishes them from each other, so it's pointless to just switch around and expect it to still have the same meaning.
my friend's brohter had a boy almost 2 years ago and wanted to name him sme really ugly foreighn word that meant "king". the baby's mom insisted on Izaiah (butchered spelling and all) so he got his royalty in there with the middle namee, which is Reign.
though I do know of someone whose middle name is rainbow. Viva Rainbow.
one of my best friends name is rainbeau. her first name, her middle name is Siavon. i could never imagine her with a different name, it truely does fit her and her personality.
i could never name my daughter something like rainbeau or star, but the ones ive come across,it fit perfectly:-)
