Hello all! My partner and I want to name our little girl with a B name so we can call her BB (our last name starts with B). We’re kinda on the fence about the name [name_f]Beverly[/name_f] and wanted some opinions along with some potential input for middle names. We’re leaning towards finding a strong middle name, something not too frilly. 
Thanks for reading and helping out! Xx
I love [name_f]Beverly[/name_f]. I am not great at middle names so I would not know where to begin but [name_f]Beverly[/name_f] is a lovely vintage Choice
[name_f]Beverly[/name_f] is the perfect kind of name to come back in style! I’m not sure your style from one name, so I’ll try my best with the middles.
Some non-frilly middles:
[name_f]Beverly[/name_f] [name_u]June[/name_u]/[name_u]Jude[/name_u]
[name_f]Beverly[/name_f] [name_f]Maxine[/name_f]/[name_u]Max[/name_u]
[name_f]Beverly[/name_f] [name_f]Sybil[/name_f]/[name_f]Sable[/name_f]
[name_f]Beverly[/name_f] [name_u]Rue[/name_u]/[name_u]Lou[/name_u]
[name_f]Beverly[/name_f] [name_u]Ray[/name_u]
[name_f]Beverly[/name_f] [name_f]Louise[/name_f]
[name_f]Beverly[/name_f] [name_f]Rose[/name_f] (a little more frilly, but I think it’s pretty)
[name_f]Beverly[/name_f] is lovely. Though it can be seen as old fashioned, I think it will feel fresh on your little girl. It’s the person that really makes their name theirs. ‘BB’ is a cute nickname. Some other nicknames she may get - [name_f]Bev[/name_f], Bevie, [name_f]Buffy[/name_f], [name_f]Beth[/name_f], [name_u]Billie[/name_u] and [name_u]Lee[/name_u].

Thoughts?
Honestly, I do find [name_f]Beverly[/name_f] extremely dated, and I just can’t picture it on a modern child, likely, because I’ve never come upon a [name_f]Beverly[/name_f] under the age of 65 (I’m also just not keen on that harsh [name_f]BEV[/name_f] sound myself). That said, [name_u]Everly[/name_u] has become quite popular nowadays and there’s the ‘vintage revival’ trend ([name_f]Beatrice[/name_f], [name_f]Iris[/name_f], [name_f]Lillian[/name_f], [name_f]Pearl[/name_f] etc) that’s been popular too, so why not add that B and rejuvenate an oldie in [name_f]Beverly[/name_f] I suppose.
Ultimately, though I’m not keen on [name_f]Beverly[/name_f] myself, it could definitely work.
I think [name_f]Beverly[/name_f] could be the next [name_u]Vivian[/name_u].
[name_f]Beverly[/name_f] [name_f]Jane[/name_f]
[name_f]Beverly[/name_f] [name_u]Quinn[/name_u]
[name_f]Beverly[/name_f] [name_f]Marin[/name_f]
[name_f]Beverly[/name_f] is nice -maybe it’s because I knew a young [name_f]Beverly[/name_f] and it suited her well
[name_f]Beverly[/name_f] [name_f]Cleo[/name_f]
[name_f]Beverly[/name_f] [name_u]Rowan[/name_u]
[name_f]Beverly[/name_f] [name_f]Matilda[/name_f]
[name_f]Beverly[/name_f] [name_u]Sage[/name_u]
[name_f]Beverly[/name_f] [name_f]Maeve[/name_f]
[name_f]Beverly[/name_f] [name_f]Tyra[/name_f]
[name_f]Beverly[/name_f] [name_f]Clara[/name_f]
[name_f]Beverly[/name_f] [name_f]Clarice[/name_f]
[name_f]Beverly[/name_f] [name_u]June[/name_u]
[name_f]Beverly[/name_f] [name_u]Quinn[/name_u]
[name_f]Beverly[/name_f] [name_f]Anya[/name_f]
[name_f]Beverly[/name_f] [name_u]Adair[/name_u]
[name_f]Beverly[/name_f] [name_f]Erin[/name_f]
I know so many Bevs in their 60s and 70s I’m sorry I can’t see the appeal of this one. [name_f]Bryony[/name_f]?
Agree that its ready for revival, especially with a spunky nickname choice that allows her to avoid [name_f]Bev[/name_f] (because I agree with a previous poster, [name_f]Bev[/name_f] is pretty harsh and reminds me of my 65+ tuck-shop lady).
I quite like [name_f]Beverly[/name_f] with a word middle, it helps to modernise it
[name_f]Beverly[/name_f] [name_u]Winter[/name_u] (quite Shakespearean if you’re into A [name_u]Winter[/name_u]'s Tale)
[name_f]Beverly[/name_f] [name_f]Faith[/name_f]
[name_f]Beverly[/name_f] [name_u]True[/name_u]
[name_f]Beverly[/name_f] [name_f]Fern[/name_f]
[name_f]Beverly[/name_f] [name_f]Hope[/name_f]
I’m not a fan of [name_f]Beverly[/name_f] to be honest, it’s S/O’s grandmother’s name and while I do love retro names from the 50s-80s, I just can’t get behind this one? 
I do think it could work though, as PPs have mentioned, [name_f]Beatrice[/name_f] and [name_u]Everly[/name_u] are both popular, as well as other retro choices like [name_f]Audrey[/name_f], [name_f]Hazel[/name_f], [name_f]Cora[/name_f], [name_f]Iris[/name_f], etc. I feel like [name_f]Beverly[/name_f] would fit in just fine.
[name_f]Beverly[/name_f] [name_u]Wren[/name_u], [name_f]Beverly[/name_f] [name_f]Willow[/name_f]. [name_f]Beverly[/name_f] [name_f]Clarisse[/name_f], [name_f]Beverly[/name_f] [name_f]Evangeline[/name_f]
[name_f]Beverly[/name_f], to me, is extremely dated.
The B names on my list are:
[name_f]Beatrix[/name_f]
[name_f]Bella[/name_f]
[name_f]Belle[/name_f]
[name_f]Bianca[/name_f]
[name_u]Billie[/name_u]

[name_u]Bliss[/name_u]
[name_f]Blossom[/name_f]
[name_f]Bluebell[/name_f]

Breah / [name_f]Bria[/name_f]
[name_f]Brenna[/name_f]
[name_f]Briar[/name_f]-[name_f]Rose[/name_f]
[name_f]Brienna[/name_f]
