Comments and insights on the name Boheme: | Edit

Not so good...

I think it's lovely as a word, as a name I am not so sure. Since it is a French word, unless you are French or live in a country where French is one of several spoken languages, be prepared for you and your child to correct many people all throughout your life on how it is said. If you can live with that, it's a cute, quirky name for a little girl and could be very enduring.
