Beatrice vs. Beatrix

Okay so here’s our issue: my husband and I love both of these names but we both love one just a little bit more. He loves Beatrice a little more cause it’s simple, girly, classy and pretty (I think so too) but I love Beatrix a little more cause again, it’s classy, girly, really pretty but at the same time it has a little more... Spunk (for lack of a better word). What we really need is help deciding between the two (we don’t tell family or friends our kid’s names until birth) so we’re looking for outside opinions. Our question is: which one of these names is prettier, Beatrice (Be-ah-triss) or Beatrix (Be-ah-tricks)? Which one should we use any why? We also really need help choosing a middle name. We want something unique (nothing like Marie, Anne, Grace etc.) Also, what is your favorite nickname for these names (Bea, Trixie or whatever else)? We just really need help in general. Our older children are: Sawyer Landon (7) and Colton Rhys (5) if that helps at all. Thank you so much in advance! —Victoria "Tori" Wright & Adam Wright.

Help! I love the name Guinevere, but I can't think of a really good brother and sister name for her. Since Guinevere is so empowering, I want the next names to be powerful as well. Thanks, Genie!
Baby Name Genie:
You seek the Holy Grail of names. Let me help you in your quest. The brother of fair Guinevere will fight on foot with swords aplenty, but on his horse he'll surely lance a lot. Name him Edward for a regal name. A sister could be dubbed Katherine if greatness is what you desire.
