So? Your daughter can have the same name as you. Many boys have the same name as their parent. Just call her Betsy.

I think you can give your daughter your name, if you want. But I've also met someone named Beatrice who was called Betsy. Beatrice Mae would be pretty.

I know a woman named Miranda Mae. She's a total bitch but I like her name.

Don't name her Betsy. It's a nickname. I like Clara Mae.

Funny, my niece is Sophie Mae

I like Elizabeth nn Betsy, as previously suggested, and agree that a multi-syllable name works best (e.g. Clara instead of Claire). What about Lillian, Juliana, Georgiana, something like that? Nicknames for those (Lily, Julie, Georgie) go with Sophie in the same way Betsy does.
