Full names for Betty? 🌹

Girl Names

Hi everyone!
Aside from the typical Elizabeth, what would you use as a full name for Betty? :sparkles:

I love Betty, but I’m worried it wouldn’t work as a standalone.
My favorite combo for Betty as a standalone would be Betty Abigail, which I think is quite lovely. I do worry that Betty would want more options as she grew up, however, so that’s why I’m asking for longer names. Additionally, I feel other nickname options such as Liz and Lizzie would be more intuitive for Elizabeth than Betty, and I’m not a fan of those.
Note: I cannot use Bethany.

Thank you!

Beatrice/Beatrix/Beatriz came to mind immediately! Also, maybe you’d like some of Elisabeth’s variations - from [name_f]Elsbeth[/name_f] to [name_f]Elisabetta[/name_f] to [name_f]Erzsébet[/name_f], there are a lot of options! I think [name_f]Betty[/name_f] works for -berta names like [name_f]Alberta[/name_f] & [name_f]Roberta[/name_f], and [name_f]Bathsheba[/name_f], [name_f]Bernadette[/name_f], [name_f]Benedetta[/name_f], or [name_f]Bridget[/name_f]. But I do love just-Betty too!

[name_f]Betty[/name_f] for [name_f]Beatrix[/name_f] or [name_f]Beatrice[/name_f] would be great!
I love [name_f]Elsbeth[/name_f] and [name_f]Elisabetta[/name_f] - the latter is stunning! I’m unsure if I’d be able to use it though, as I’m not Italian. It’s a great way to get to [name_f]Betty[/name_f] though - the “bett” sound is right there!
I’m also warming to the spelling of [name_f]Elisabeth[/name_f], or even [name_f]Elisabet[/name_f] for the [name_f]Betty[/name_f] sound.
[name_f]Bernadette[/name_f] and [name_f]Brigitte[/name_f] are lovely!

And same, just [name_f]Betty[/name_f] is really growing on me as well.

[name_f]Elsbeth[/name_f], [name_f]Embeth[/name_f] or at a push [name_f]Elspeth[/name_f] :blush:, [name_f]Lilibet[/name_f].

There’s also [name_u]Betony[/name_u], it’s a woodland plant name but I’m thinking if you can’t use [name_f]Bethany[/name_f] then this would also be no good.

[name_f]Bethan[/name_f]. And its a big stretch but I have [name_f]Tabitha[/name_f] nn [name_f]Beth[/name_f] on my list so [name_f]Tabitha[/name_f] nn [name_f]Betty[/name_f] kind of makes sense.

I’m a big fan of [name_u]September[/name_u] “Betty” as a stretchier nickname! As for other options that haven’t been suggested yet, there’s [name_f]Bethel[/name_f], [name_f]Bettina[/name_f], [name_f]Isabetta[/name_f], & Babette…

I also think any name ending -ette or -etta could have [name_f]Betty[/name_f] as a nickname — I’m hoping rhyming nicknames become more common :blush:

[name_f]Betty[/name_f] is gorgeous! I’d say she works just fine as a stand-alone, but here are some of my favourite ideas…

[name_f]Lilibet[/name_f]
Ellsbeth
[name_f]Elisabet[/name_f] (so sweet!)
[name_f]Alberta[/name_f]
[name_f]Bettina[/name_f]
[name_f]Betta[/name_f]
[name_f]Beatrix[/name_f]

I hope this has helped! :heart:

thank you so much!
i love these suggestions.
i am also beginning to come to the conclusion that it might work as a standalone.
right now, i’m really loving the betty abigail combo that i’ve got in the post descriptor :blush:
i do really like elisabet and beatrix though!

I’d use [name_f]Bettina[/name_f]. It’s really pretty and unusual, and [name_f]Betty[/name_f] would be the intuitive nickname for her

[name_f]Beatrice[/name_f]
[name_f]Bernadette[/name_f]
Aubrietta
[name_f]Betsabe[/name_f]
[name_f]Tabitha[/name_f]?
[name_f]Bettina[/name_f]
[name_f]Bethel[/name_f] (too close to Bethany?)
[name_f]Marybeth[/name_f]
[name_f]Alberta[/name_f]
[name_f]Bridget[/name_f]

Ellabeth
Florabeth
