 Screenplays-Online.de - Comments: Kill Bill
Beatrix's name was simply bleeped to give her some mystery/mystique - "The Bride" as she is referred to insinuates that she is a steely killing machine on a mission rather than a human being with a purpose which isn't explored until well into Vol.
P.P.S. The only speculation that I can gather is when Beatrix Kiddo is shown in school it is to signify what we can figure out by her name, she has grown up in a divirse neighborhood and definatly has a sassy side to her.
Anyone realized why they showed kiddo in a classroom with kids when they first mentioned her first name..Beatrix??

 Kill Bill: Vol. 2
The Bride, whose name is revealed to be Beatrix Kiddo late in the movie, is now going after the remaining two Deadly Assassination Vipers Squad members before killing Bill.
Main cast: Uma Thurman (Beatrix Kiddo/The Bride), David Carradine (Bill), Michael Madsen (Budd), Daryl Hannah (Elle Driver), Gordon Liu (Johnny Mo/Pai Mei), and Michael Parks (Esteban Vihaio)
Perhaps I will be more emotionally invested in Beatrix's "dramatic" side if the dialogues aren't corny and her scenes with Bill don't feel so staged.

 Top Box Office Movies - Kill Bill Vol. 2
Even the film’s leading lady finally is given an identity as Beatrix Kiddo as a subtle means to define the completeness of the characterizations and their motivation for being in the middle of this fearless frolicking taking place.
Driver is not too keen on having Beatrix breathe an ounce of fresh air and one could imagine the orgasmic state of mind this venomous vixen must have experienced when pummeling The Bride/Beatrix with animalistic flare in an orgy of blood and guts.
Well, Beatrix’s kid is now a four-year old named BB (Perla Honey-Jardine) and she’s at the centralized mercy of her perturbed parents Bill and Beatrix.

Beatrix, who also takes on the nom de guerre Black Mamba, calls her journey ''a roaring rampage of revenge.'' The movie is laden with lurid, revved-up sadism; as visited upon the heroine, it's the kind of violence most often associated with prefeminist exploitation pictures in which the attacks often had a sexual charge.
Beatrix's other pummeling comes from her martial-arts master, the kung-fu instructor Pei Mai (Gordon Liu), who early in ''Vol.
When Bill arrives at Beatrix's wedding rehearsal, their entire romantic and professional background comes out, and then Bill and his team of mostly femmes fatales level the entire wedding party.

In another flashback scene, we see The Bride, who we come to find out has a real name, Beatrix Kiddo, train with the master who trained Bill.
As Beatrix is trying to climb out of her grave, Elle Driver shows up at Budd's place to collect the sword that Budd had called her about.
Madsen is also delightfully evil as Budd, as shortly before he buries Kiddo he gives her a choice between a can of mace and a flashlight.

Bill reveals to Beatrix that Pai Mei is a White Lotus Priest who was famed to be one of the greatest martial artists.Once upon a time in China, some believe, around the year one double-ought three.
Bill then informs Beatrix of Pai Mei's "Five-Point Palm Exploding Heart Technique." When Beatrix asks what exactly the technique is, Bill explains that the Five-Point Palm Exploding Heart Technique is used to literally explode the heart of the opponent.

 WHEDONesque : Comments on 5832 : Buffy VS The Bride.
The thing I see that stands in the way of this is that Beatrix got down and dirty because she swore revenge on those who ruined her life.
If Tarantino wrote the script I guess the Bride would chop Buffy into a lot of very small pieces and tell Dawn that if she wanted revenge she could look her up.
River versus Beatrix, wow, that would be a nice fight.

 Three Movie Buffs Review Kill Bill Volume 2 (2004) Starring: Uma Thurman, David Carradine, Daryl Hannah
Upon awakening Beatrix, or the Bride as she is known for it was during her wedding rehearsal that Bill tried to kill her, began to seek revenge upon Bill and the other assassins in his employ.
Uma Thurman plays Beatrix Kiddo, a deadly assassin who tried to quit the biz when she became pregnant.
I agree with Eric that the wedding massacre rehash should have been shorter and that the scene of Budd at the bar was completely unnecessary, but from the moment Beatrix gets buried alive the movie never falters until the end credits.

 Kill Bill: Volume 2
The Bride (who's real name we learn is Beatrix Kiddo) goes back to Budd's trailer, only to find that he's been killed by Elle Driver (Hannah) so she could get Beatrix's Hattori Hanzo sword.
However, she learns how to kick ass as well, and flash forward to her in the coffin, she uses that knowledge to punch her way out of her death box and wriggle out of the ground like a Romero zombie.
For those of you who don't know how this movie ends, I'll make it quick: Beatrix finds Bill and realizes her daughter is still alive.

 Kill Bill : The Bride/Black Mamba's name revealed
If you pause the movie at this point, you can read the name on the ticket as Beatrix Kiddo, which is revealed to be the Bride's real name in Vol.
The line in the movie "silly rabbit, trix are for kids," is a reference to her characters name in the movie, (Beatrix Kiddo).
Her name is also revealed secretely by Bill; in the beginning he says "you know kiddo, I'd like to believe..." which is obviously a reference to her character's last name.

Shortly after The Bride (Beatrix Kiddo) lunges for the katana atop Bill's TV, Bill shoots the bowl of fruit on the table in front of her, spraying her with juice and fruit matter.
After the flashback, there is a close-up of Beatrix and her neckline is stain-free.
In the next shot, when Beatrix is walking towards the camera, the orange stain has reappeared.

 THE BROOKLYN RAIL - FILM
At the end of the movie, Bill asks The Bride if she was surprised when, in the first Kill Bill, he came to kill her, the woman he loved.
While much of the inspiration for Kill Bill are the Japanese Kung Fu films of the 1960s and ’70s, the movie is really a love story between two "natural born killers" who are the parents of a now four-year-old girl, BB (from Beatrix and Bill).
The love story ends in betrayal, the heroine gets her revenge, and in spite of the violence, the emotional charge erupts from these fine actors speaking Tarantino’s spare words.
