[Opinions] Barthelemy, Boaz, and Breixo
I've been working on making my way through all the names in the database in order to create a huge Excel sheet of all the names I like. Yesterday I did boys' names beginning with B and came across Barthelemy, Boaz, and Breixo. I already knew of Boaz but had forgotten him, while Barthelemy and Breixo are new to me.I really like, them, especially Barthelemy. It seems like the type of name that wears a hat. I can't immediately think of any combos though. I came up with Barthelemy Claude, which I like a lot, but I feel like it needs something more. Any suggestions?Breixo is pronounced something like "BRAY-shaw" according to the database. I think I'm infatuated by the look of it more than the sound. Its meaning is really neat too - "very true".Boaz is a name I am sometimes intoxicated with and sometimes irritated at. For some reason it always reminds me of Marty Feldman but I have no idea why. I've never really noticed its meaning before though- "swiftness". I think that makes it a million times better. I asked about Boaz Valentine here once a while ago and it got mostly lukewarm reviews, but I think it's really snappy so I'm asking again ;) Or do you have any other Boaz combos with the same feel as Boaz Valentine?

Barthelemy is excellent! I personally like Barthelemy Jules, I think it carries a really fun, dandy flair to it - very hatlike indeed. Other ideas:Barthelemy Basil
Barthelemy Giles
Barthelemy Clark
Barthelemy Felix
Barthelemy Fredrick
Barthelemy Flip
Barthelemy Floyd, Barthelemy Lloyd
Barthelemy RexBreixo is so cool, I am intimidated by it. It reminds me of this guy I went to school with, he was a grade above me and was seriously the most hip, edgy thing my little suburban self had ever seen. He had a faux-hawk before faux-hawks were cool, and his name was Jzero ("juh-ZAYR-oh"). That was his name, for real! And he was pasty white and had a really common last name - I always wanted to ask him where his name came from but he was a supercool older boy so no way was I ever gonna find out. Anyways here are some names worthy to stand next to Breixo:Breixo Alexandru (it's a real name sweartogod)
Breixo Corentin
Breixo Ender (which would make the full meaning of his name "very true, very rare")
Breixo Januarius
Breixo Leofwine ("very true, dear friend")

Barthelemy is pretty cool! And I quite like the ring of Barthelemy Claude. Breixo isn't quite like BRAY-shaw, though. The Galician 'o' isn't really the same as an English 'aw' sound. You can listen here: http://es.forvo.com/word/breixo#gl
Cool name for sure.
I think Alexandre is used in Galicia, so maybe Breixo Alexandre? (I'd pronounce it a-leh-SHAHN-dreh in this case but I guess you could get away with the French pronunciation as well)
Breixo Gael
Breixo Leandre
Breixo Tobias
Breixo Vicente
(I got the middle names from this name document on the Xunta de Galicia site. They aren't strictly Galician names, which I kind of like to balance Breixo out if you aren't from there/ don't speak Galician)I kind of like Boaz, but I`d like Boas more, I think. I love Valentine, though! Boaz Constantine, Boaz Teodor, Boaz Caetano

Cool, thank you for the Galician pronunciation! Breixo Alexandre is really neat, I never would've thought of that. I like Breixo Tobias also.Constantine is fantastic!

Personally, I have always like Boaz Xander (ex-zander) That's my snappy combo that no one else really likes...

Barthelemy Claude definitely works!
Barthelemy Pedro, Berthelemy Oscar, Barthelemy Pietro, Barthelemy Peter, Barthelemy John, Barthelemy Tobias?Breixo is cool, but the spelling and pronunciation are a bit strange to me at least. He'd get BRAYK-so all the time...Boaz Valencio, Boaz Victor, Boaz Suleyman, Boaz Martino, Boaz Mario, Boaz Marianus, Boaz Octavius, Boaz Timeo, Boaz Timoteo, Boaz Matteo, Boaz Giancarlo, Boaz Gianmarco, Boaz Gianpaolo, and all the other Gian- names
