About Bechet
Woody Allen used this name for his daughter to honor jazz hero Sidney Bechet -- and it could work for a boy as well.
Bechet for girls
Naming babies for personal heroes is the cool contemporary trend followed by Woody Allen when he honored New Orleans jazz clarinetist Sidney Bechet in his daughter's name--adding the middle name Dumaine after a cornet player who was another of his musical heroes. Bechet has a nice, catchy Gallic feel.
Pronounced buh-SHAY.
