Help[Opinions] Re: Beulah

BYOO-la. Byul-ah.
I think there's something charming about it. Maybe because the byoo sound + an old fashioned vibe makes me think "bucolic", and it vaguely reminds me of "beautiful" (I guess there aren't very many words in English with that initial sound).
I don't see it being popular anytime soon. It's one of those names that I personally like, but that I would expect most people I know to describe as outdated/ugly; a couple others on that list would be Ethel and Gertrude.
