This is my middle name and I constantly get remarks towards it. Most of the remarks are directed towards the spelling mostly. But a lot of people do find the name very cute when they say it & it does come with a lot of nicknames. Sometimes I wish I would constantly go by Bettye because it's just that cute when you say it.
'Bette' I like, 'Bettie' I can understand. But 'Bettye' is just a step too far in terms of creative spelling. It does look like a typo. It's just silly.
