Literally just like the sound of it! Thank you :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bodhi-alternative-spelling#post-2000797 Mon, 29 Dec 2014 09:41:38 +0000 Mrs. Jacks 2000797@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I wouldn't mess with spelling. Besides if you like the Buddhist meaning, you'll lose that if you change the spelling. Bode miller is pretty well known, so you can probably get away with that, though he's not someone is be super excited to call to mind. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bodhi-alternative-spelling#post-2000789 Mon, 29 Dec 2014 09:39:22 +0000 LuLu Mom 2000789@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I know a Bodie. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bodhi-alternative-spelling#post-2000771 Mon, 29 Dec 2014 09:30:52 +0000 jenm 2000771@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@fairy: Ha! That's ok, I've only ever heard it in reference to the Patrick Swayze movie Point Break. </p> <p>@matador84: I said the same thing! I said what about b-o-d-y and DH said you mean BODY? No, you're trying too hard, haha. Oh well.</p> <p>@rattles: True...I think we may cross out this one all together. Our last name is rather long and has an extra ''e'' in there that everyone forgets so we have to constantly spell it. I'd rather my child not have to spell their full name every single time. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bodhi-alternative-spelling#post-2000449 Sun, 28 Dec 2014 22:01:13 +0000 fairy 2000449@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have only seen Bodie, but tbh they were all dogs! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bodhi-alternative-spelling#post-2000448 Sun, 28 Dec 2014 22:00:32 +0000 Anagram 2000448@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@jenm: I grew up with a Bodee!

Pretty sure most would think it is body, as in the human body. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bodhi-alternative-spelling#post-2000424 Sun, 28 Dec 2014 21:48:19 +0000 regberadaisy 2000424@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I would pronounce Bohdi the way you want it before the way you initially spelled it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bodhi-alternative-spelling#post-2000422 Sun, 28 Dec 2014 21:47:02 +0000 rattles 2000422@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I don't love the look of Bodhi either, but I think Bode will set him up for constant correction of mispronunciations. That might just be a risk with the name in general though, which might be an argument in favor of doing whatever you want. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bodhi-alternative-spelling#post-2000351 Sun, 28 Dec 2014 21:05:49 +0000 Canoli 2000351@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@tinyperson: I like this way too. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bodhi-alternative-spelling#post-2000302 Sun, 28 Dec 2014 20:25:35 +0000 spaniellove 2000302@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've seen Bodie, but Bodhi has a vibe all its own! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bodhi-alternative-spelling#post-2000290 Sun, 28 Dec 2014 20:21:04 +0000 jenm 2000290@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@FannyMae: I love Beau too which is what led us to Bodhi so it's def a contender!</p> <p>@Little Misters Mom: I think it's the "h" for some reason. </p> <p>@tinyperson: I hadn't thought about Bode.

Beau or Brody? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bodhi-alternative-spelling#post-2000266 Sun, 28 Dec 2014 20:11:37 +0000 jenm 2000266@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We both love the sound of the name Bodhi (bo-dee) but I hate the spelling. Any other recommendations for an alternative spelling? The only other way I have seen is Bohdi which isn't much different. </p>
