Belle/Bella (I know this could read "Isabelle/a" or Beauty and the Beast, but I had a great-aunt w/this name and it makes me think of first gen Ashkenazi Americans ~1900-1930, among whom it was common)

Bess or Billie or Beryl nn Beri or Beulah (lots of nn choices) are along those lines, too.

Same w/Bettie/Bettye, maybe Bobbie

Beverly might sound too Boomerish, one gen below, but I think its neat.

Bethanne and Bridget are pretty uncommon among Jewish folks (FWIW, I am a Jewish folk) but could also be really nice.

Don't let the feckless haters get you down. I did this with my kid, who was born shortly after both my grandfathers passed. Knowing I might only have one kid, I used one's first initial for her first name, and the other's for her middle name. <3[/quote]

Suggesting ugly names is not helpful. Nobody should be named Beverly, Betty, Beryl, or Bealuah. Good grief.[/quote]

NP.  I like Beverly and Beryl.[/quote]

Then you are not qualified to post on this forum due to your terrible taste. Nobody wants to be named Beryl. [/quote]

You're a moron.  Beryl is the name of a gemstone and like Jade, Ruby, Coral and a few others, has been used for centuries.  Beryl is a fine name.  You are the one who is not qualified to post on this forum.  Not only are you ignorant, but you have terrible taste, so offering your advice is doubly wrong.[/quote]
