Bo

At thinkbabynames.com it says Bo is a nickname for William. I, myself, have never met or heard of any William's by this nickname. Has anyone else?

That's funny, because there's a Bo Williams car dealership down here. I hate when people give their kids names like that. My brother has a friend named Steve Stevens. The THIRD.

My grandpa's name is Andrew Andrews. He named my uncle after him and my mom's name was Andrea Andrews before she got married. =\

How can Bo be used for Beau? They have the same pronunciation.
