    I love Billie for a girl! Beatrice, not so much, but she will more likely go by Billie, so…

    I don’t care for it. All I thing of is Billie Goat Dane. I’m sure she’s a darling little girl though. Nothing against the little one, just not my choice of names, so don’t beat me up too much.

    this is bad, but i guess it could have been a lot worse since celebrities usually go crazy on baby names.

    I think Billie Beatrice is just gorgeous, but Scarlett is right, Billie Dane is awfully similar to Billy Zane. But regardless, I think it’s a very sweet name, and as far as nicknames go they could always call her Bebe/BB :)

    I expected something way too weird from that front so seeing the name surprised me a bit. For the positive. Not a big fan of those names together but held separately it’s really cute!
    Eric’s co-actress Ellen Pompeo told a magazine that her own daughter Stella Luna and Eric and Rebecca’s little one would be pretty close in age and she expected them to be play pals once they grew a little. Billie and Stella. Aww. That’s just too cute:)

    Sounds like 2 grandma’s maybe they named her after. Maybe they were close and now deceased… like Violet Affleck. It took me awhile to like Violet.. so Billie will probably grow on me too.
