Now I definitely don't like this name for Emma Buntons baby boy, Beau. It may be French for handsome but still a bit of a poncey name.

I know someone with a 15 yr old boy called Beau - I bet he suffers for it at school

Not disrespecting anyone, but Beau is a silly name for a boy. I had a student called Knight. I thought that was lame too.

I have an Australian male friend called Kim who is a speech therapist and all his patients arrive expecting to see a female.

Kim is very common as a man's name in Australia.

My niece went to school with a kid called Gideon Overhead, which I always thought sounded like a railway warning sign, poor sod.

I quite like the name Gideon. I like Seth too. And Chad and Jethro.

my neighbours name is Kim..i thought it was a strange name for a man when i first met him..i wonder if his family is from Australia..

 

i think i've mentioned this before but anyway..i work with a girl from Jamaica whos name is Snow White..

 

i think it doesn't matter how strange some names seem at first after a while you get used to them and the person does suit them..don't you find ?

My mother went to school with a boy called John Swan, who had a cousin called Florence Laurence. Seriously.

I believe you. I knew a boyfriend and girlfriend combo called Karen Pullum and Terry Oldham.
