Shockingly I don't know any Elizabeths

...except one who is about fifty and goes by Liz, so Beth seems actually quite sweet and refreshing to me.
I will say though that it seems a little one-dimensional in its sweetness. It's harder to imagine a sarcastic, ballsy, sharply intelligent Beth. It's very young sounding and would be ok on a really kind, motherly, home-loving type who bakes a lot, or someone shy and literary (Little Women style), but it's not really a "go-getter" of a name.
