Is she or isn’t she?
I’m actually extremely surprised that [name_f]Beverly[/name_f] hasn’t caught on yet. It’s perfectly on trend and has a strong association with celebrities and glamor because of [name_f]Beverly[/name_f] Hills. It’s not my style though.
[name_f]Beverly[/name_f] is really lovely! I have met a couple old Bevs, but they were very sweet. It’s not really my style, but I can definitely see a little [name_f]Beverly[/name_f] running around. She would fit in too, with all the [name_u]Everly[/name_u]'s and [name_u]Avery[/name_u]'s.
PS - I do remember [name_f]Nancy[/name_f] from [name_m]Little[/name_m] House on the [name_u]Prairie[/name_u]! I clicked as I was watching it last night. Oh yes, she wasn’t the nicest! 
She isn’t.
That’s definitely a no from me. [name_f]Beverly[/name_f] feels very trashy to me even with the association of [name_f]Beverly[/name_f] Crusher. Not a fan in the least.
Who is [name_f]Beverly[/name_f] Crusher?
I could see it being revived. I don’t like the sound of [name_f]Bev[/name_f]. It reminds me of a beverage. But I could totally see it getting used and maybe it would change my mind to see it on a little girl.
[name_f]Beverly[/name_f] Crusher is the redheaded doctor on [name_f]Star[/name_f] Trek: The Next Generation. I grew up watching and loving that show. I love that character, but still dislike the name.
it’s my mother-in-law’s name so maybe not beauteous.
[name_f]Beverly[/name_f] [name_m]Cleary[/name_m] association is cheerful.
[name_f]Beverly[/name_f] Hillbillies not pleasant.
But there is some sort of abundance suggested.
I am again not a fan. Again, very old-style, to me. I remember the large woman with black hair and grey slivers running through the bob cut. She always wore pink, and for personal reasons the name leaves a bad taste in my mouth, puts a scowl on my face and a growl in my gut.
My only association of a [name_f]Beverly[/name_f] is one of my mums friends in her late 40’s. [name_f]Lovely[/name_f] lovely woman but I can’t see it on a child. That’s why I don’t really like [name_u]Everly[/name_u], just sounds like part of [name_f]Beverly[/name_f].
@Southern [name_f]Maple[/name_f] - I, too, am surprised [name_f]Beverly[/name_f] isn’t neck-and-neck with [name_u]Everly[/name_u] and [name_u]Waverly[/name_u].
@[name_f]Jasmine[/name_f] - The [name_f]Beverly[/name_f] I’ve known is also exceptionally sweet. [name_f]Glad[/name_f] you haven’t missed out on the delightful ray of sunshine that is [name_f]Nancy[/name_f] Oleson ;).
@Boy and Girl - lol
@Caty - Hadn’t considered the [name_f]Star[/name_f] Trek association. Hmm.
@elo - I agree, [name_f]Beverly[/name_f] needs a better nickname!
@[name_u]Leslie[/name_u] - lol: “It’s my mother-in-law’s name so maybe not beauteous.”
@[name_f]Sadie[/name_f] - lol: “I remember the large woman with black hair and grey slivers running through the bob cut. She always wore pink, and for personal reasons the name leaves a bad taste in my mouth, puts a scowl on my face and a growl in my gut.”
@Jesabel - [name_u]Everly[/name_u] and [name_f]Beverly[/name_f] are synonymous for me, as well.
I really [name_f]Beverly[/name_f] it feels old fashioned and sweet, but the ‘v’ sound makes it fit in with modern names, such as [name_u]Avery[/name_u] etc. The nickname [name_f]Bev[/name_f] makes it seem dated, I prefer [name_u]Ever[/name_u] as a nn though I’m not so sure how that would work in real life
@[name_f]Nellie[/name_f] - That’s it – [name_u]Ever[/name_u]! What a brilliant nickname for [name_f]Beverly[/name_f]!
