It should be a nickname if it has to be a name at all. I haven't got any preference as to whether it should be a male of female nickname.

Bo could be short for Bonita or Bonnie.

I don't like it, but if you're going to go with it, maybe go with Isabeau? I think 'Boo' would be a cute nickname for her then.

It's very masculine. Bo in male names is derived from the southern term for suiters, Beau. I agree if you like the idea of colling your daughter Bo give her a name with "bo" in the pronunciation and let it be a nickname for her. Otherwise she's going to be called Bo-peep or something through most of her early schooling.
