yes!................But I bet your friend gets tired of people mispronouncing it!

It is a very pretty name, but if you are thinking of naming a child this, you may want to consider the computer program with the same name. Kids are cruel, and will try anything to rip on another kid. Prolly not to likely to happen, but still something to consider.

Edit: I understand its not prononced like the program, but being simular to they are more than likely going to call the child that anyway. Until the child corrects them repeatedly

Well it all depends on how you say it, it could very well be sounded like the program.

You're asking so I have to say I don't like it, but I'm sure your friend is perfectly happy with it, as he/she should be, and for the record, I never liked my own name growing up either.....

pretty cute.

not really, sorry

i don't like it. it sounds like a body of water for me.

it sounds like a fat boy.(when it nounced)
i like to pronounce it as [EI-DOUBE]

This is a no-win situation. This is an OPINION question........not anything for which a response would be fact. The sad thing is, people will get thumbs down for having an opinion. In all fairness, there should not be a thumbs up or thumbs down for opinions.........because you like or don't like something.

You don't get to be nasty because people don't understand your question. The common denominator is YOU.........meaning maybe YOU did not ask it very well.

This is the genealogy forum. We are not concerned with how pretty a name is or not, and we are not concerned with such opinions. We research our ancestors and deal with FACTS only.......birth/marriage/death records, census records, wills, deeds, court records, etc.

no,i think it can be mispronounced and never sound like it should

I think it is a stupid name, and the question does not belong in the genealogy forum.
