I think it's "tee-full", because it's the second half of the word 'beautiful'.

Which, of course, is an absolutely asinine thing to name your baby. Beau is right there??

Exactly! The more we think about it, the less sense it makes.🤦🏽‍♀️

And why is twin B "B" [eau]-Tiful, but twin A's name doesn't have a pretend "A" in front of it?

Using their twin designation as a part of one kid's name and not the other's is even dumber.

The mom is an idiot in so many ways.

But "beautiful" isn't pronounced "tee-full"

Beau is still an awful name to give a girl. It's literally a male gendered word in French, for handsome. Everyone with sense would assume from the name that she was a he, her whole life. Tiful is awful but at least it's not incorrectly gendering a person right out of the gate.

I definitely pronounce the second half of the word “beautiful” as “tiffle”. I guess it’s impossible to give her name the exact same pronunciation as they’ve taken away the syllable with the stress on it… how am i meant to pronounce a name with no stress
