[name]Lucy[/name] [name]Beatrix[/name]. I love [name]Beatrice[/name], too, but like [name]Beatrix[/name] better with [name]Lucy[/name]. Less sssss sounds. Not a fan of beitris. I love [name]Lucy[/name] [name]Beatrix[/name], the combo is stunning. I would be just as happy hearing [name]Beatrice[/name] in the middle though.
[name]Lucy[/name] [name]Beatrix[/name] is amazing!
[name]Lucy[/name] is so playful yet classic, [name]Beatrix[/name] too. A perfect pair!
[name]Lucy[/name] [name]Beatrice[/name] is really cute but [name]IMO[/name], the classic [name]Lucy[/name] needs a funky and unusual names, which is [name]Beatrix[/name]. [name]Lucy[/name] [name]Beitris[/name] will be a bit confusing.
[name]Lucy[/name] [name]Beatrix[/name] for sure! [name]Lucy[/name] [name]Beatrice[/name], while lovely, has quite a bit of sss sound, and [name]Lucy[/name] [name]Beitris[/name] will definitely be confusing.
[name]Lucy[/name] [name]Beatrix[/name] is my pick!
[name]Lucy[/name] [name]Beatrix[/name] is perfection!
[name]Lucy[/name] [name]Beatrice[/name] is too heavy on the s- sounds, and the name [name]Beatrice[/name] isn’t as spunky as [name]Beatrix[/name] is - and I think it’s that spunkiness that makes it a perfect pairing with [name]Lucy[/name].
[name]Lucy[/name] [name]Beitris[/name] - I appreciate the sentiment behind considering this version, but - while I realize most people don’t use their middle names on a daily basis - no one will ever get the spelling right.
Another vote for [name]Beatrix[/name]. [name]Beatrice[/name] is too hissy with all those “s” sounds; [name]Beitris[/name] looks confusing, though I like the family connection. [name]Beatrix[/name] is fun and old-fashioned and lovely.
Going to go against the popular opinion and say [name]Lucy[/name] [name]Beatrice[/name]. I don’t see the appeal of [name]Beatrix[/name]… The x just ruins the name for me. I love the family connection to [name]Beitris[/name], but agree with PP it will be confusing. On the other hand, the only times I’ve written my full name were for my passport, my college diploma, and my wedding invitation. I think the family connection and flow make it worth it. MN are the place to be adventurous.
Thanks for opinions. I think [name]Beatrix[/name] is my first pick too, then [name]Beatrice[/name].
I had [name]Lucy[/name] [name]Beatrix[/name] on my list. [name]LOVE[/name]!
[name]Beatrix[/name] is gorgeous, and technically more classic than [name]Beatrice[/name], I believe! [name]Beatrice[/name] tends to sound old lady in my ears, where as [name]Beatrix[/name] sounds hip, artsy, funky, and fresh – definitely gives some edge to sweet-as-can-be [name]Lucy[/name].
I prefer [name]Lucy[/name] [name]Beatrix[/name] since the repeated s-sound almost at the end of both [name]Lucy[/name] and [name]Beatrice[/name] doesn’t work wonders for me. [name]Beitris[/name] is a little complicated, but it reminds me of simpler [name]Betrys[/name] which I love. [name]Betrys[/name] is the Welsh form of [name]Beatrice[/name].
I also like the Spanish [name]Beatriz[/name] and Viatrix, but those are more out-there again. ^^
