Beaux

Beaux Origin and Meaning

The name Beaux is a girl's name.

Beaux is a feminine name derived from the French word meaning 'beautiful' or 'handsome' (traditionally spelled 'beau' in the masculine form). This stylized spelling with the added 'x' gives the name a distinctive, elegant quality while maintaining its French pronunciation. Originally more common as a masculine name or term of endearment, Beaux has transitioned to primarily feminine usage in English-speaking countries. The name evokes images of Southern charm and sophistication, particularly in American usage where it connects to terms like 'Southern belle' and the architectural style 'Beaux-Arts.' Though not among the most popular names, Beaux has seen modest usage for girls seeking a name that balances uniqueness with recognizable beauty and grace.
