The boy name Bodhi?

Boy Names

What do you think of our boy name:

His name will be [name]Bodhi[/name] (pronounced bow-dee)
Meaning wisdom, enlightening and knowledge and is a Buddism name.
We are thinking [name]Bodhi[/name] [name]Joel[/name] [name]Geoffrey[/name] ([name]Joel[/name] after his father and [name]Geoffrey[/name] after his late Pa)
Last name Koch (pronounced Kosh)

We love the meaning of [name]Bodhi[/name] and respect Buddism and their way of life.

And what girl name would you have as his sibling? [name]Indie[/name], [name]Piper[/name], [name]Hartley[/name], [name]Sage[/name], [name]Layla[/name]… Or your thoughts?

Thank you :slight_smile:

I love the name [name]Bodhi[/name]. I like [name]India[/name] and [name]Piper[/name] best from your girl’s list.

I think [name]Bodhi[/name] is really interesting and it works well with your last name. It has a wonderful meaning, too! I do prefer the middle names flipped around, [name]Bodhi[/name] [name]Geoffrey[/name] [name]Joel[/name] instead of [name]Bodhi[/name] [name]Joel[/name] [name]Geoffrey[/name].

For a sibling, I really like [name]Indie[/name] and [name]Layla[/name] from your list.

I really like the meaning behind the name but I’m sorry, I really hate the sound of it. I have a weird aversion to names that start with “bo” for some reason. I’m not 100% sure why, but I don’t like it.

I think that the names switched sounds better… as suggested before. [name]Bodhi[/name] [name]Geoffrey[/name] [name]Joel[/name]!

Those two middle names are so clunky, do you really need to squeeze in both?

[name]Indie[/name]- don’t like both names having “ee” ending
[name]Piper[/name]- sounds ditzy, especially next to [name]Bodhi[/name] with its meaning
[name]Hartley[/name]- same as [name]Indie[/name] and just doesn’t go with [name]Bodhi[/name]

[name]India[/name], [name]Sage[/name], and [name]Layla[/name] fit well with [name]Bodhi[/name].
[name]Lotus[/name]
[name]Farah[/name]
[name]Dhara[/name]
[name]Fatima[/name]
[name]Maya[/name]
[name]Aisha[/name] “eye-sha”

I really like [name]Bodhi[/name]. I think I’d switch the middles around too, in order to avoid the initials “BJ” which could have teasing potential.

I love [name]Bodhi[/name], but agree with pps, the two middles together are a little clunky. I would go with [name]Bodhi[/name] [name]Geoff[/name] (to honor [name]Geoffrey[/name]) and sister [name]Layla[/name] [name]Joelle[/name] (to honor [name]Joel[/name]). [name]Love[/name] [name]Bodhi[/name] and [name]Layla[/name] together. Good luck! :slight_smile:

I really like [name]Bodhi[/name]! From your girls’ list, I love [name]Layla[/name]. I think [name]Sage[/name] is too much nature and [name]Hartley[/name] doesn’t appeal to me. I think [name]Indie[/name] ([name]Indira[/name], perhaps? Much better with [name]Bodhi[/name] than [name]India[/name]) also goes well with [name]Bodhi[/name].
