How do YOU pronounce Beau?

[Bear_Crossing]

I say 'bow'.

 

[Kammeh]

Bow.
I've known people with the name "Beau" and its always pronounced "bow" so that's how I know how to say his name. cx

 

[MindlessPatch]

Byew. My friend had a golden retriever named Beau and that's how she pronounced it so... Yeah...

 

[Libertae]

haterz mad because they don't know how to pronounce names correctly don't hate me cause you ain't meeee

It's more like people who don't know a lick of French pronouncing it how it looks. I don't speak French, don't study it, and probably will not study it just to know how it's pronounced. You can be mad about it but really, not everyone studies/studied French.

As for how it is pronounced in French, I'll keep that in mind. I called Beau by "byu" in such a long time that it'll take a while to adjust.

Byoo. It just sounds better than bow lol

 

[FireNinja1]

I say "Bow". Just personal preference, never even though of the other one.

I pronounce it "bow", because as a French speaker that's what's normal to me. Also, I've met several people named both Beau and Bowe, and they all pronounce it the same. ( I think Bowe is the "American" way of spelling Beau. )

I've never studied French except in like 6th grade because it was mandatory I thought it was just common knowledge but apparently it's not I've known people with the name and it's always bow that's why I said that

BEW BEW BEW -shoots lasers at everyone-

 

[Cynnamon]

Beau! ... Since being in Canada entails that we learn French and stuff. :9

 

[Nanaki]

"Bow", since that's how the actual name is pronounced.

 

[Capella]

Bow
That's how it's supposed to be pronounced

 

[keandra86]

'bow' like the French would say!

 

[Birdinator]

bew

 

[JackFrost6849]

Im pretty sure the official way to pronounce it is "bow" and not "bew" (rhymes with pew). But that's just me I mean, different people pronounce things differently. xD

 

[Dewy]

I pronounce it the proper way (the French way). I think it's kind of strange that some people know the correct way to pronounce it but still choose to call him Byew -.-
A lot of people probably pronounce Chevre's name incorrectly too. Poor babies who have names that are always being butchered.. ;-;

 

[shayminskyforme88]

Byew

 

[juneau]

I say it like "bow" as well.

 

[MadisonCrossing]

I say it like "beautiful" but without the "tiful", so like "bee-yoo". I don't really care what the actual pronunciation is. Different people say it different ways and even though I might be wrong, it's not that big of a deal. c':

 

[SuperSparky1]

I know this isn't right, but I like to call him "Bee-ay-ew". :3
