This is such a cute name. I would love to have a daughter that has this name. I know a few people who use Bee as a nickname for Elizabeth and I think it’s lovely and adorable. Even on someone older than 10.
This name is cute as heck, as a nickname, or as a legal name. Who cares what anyone else thinks. They're probably just jealous that they don't have a unique name.

I like Bea a lot better, I think this is too childish.
My parents gave me Bee as my first name (it’s not short for anything, and I am a girl) and I used to hate it when I was little as I would be picked on for it, but now I am older I love having a unique name that no one else has. Everyone I meet comments on how cute and unique the name is and I agree, I love it now!

It is a girl's name though Beatryce/Beatrice can also be shortened to Trice. This is a pansy name for boys.
Bees sting! Why would you want to give this as a legal name for your daughter? However, it's fine if it's a nickname for Beatrice or anything else starting with B.
Buzz Buzz Buzzzzzzzz. I perfer the spelling Bea. Either way though, nobody's gunna miss the connection with the animal, but Bea just looks right. Though it makes sense to choose this variant if you're more concerned with people pronouncing it right, and not saying "Bee-ah".
