Bea "bee" vs. Bea "bee-ah"

We've been calling our daughter Beatrice by the nickname bee-ah (like the first 2 syllables) for months now but aren't sure how to write it down. Bea seemed obvious as that's how it's spelt in her full name but I think people pronounce that as bee? Any other suggestions would be great please

Bea or Beah both work, though some (most?) people will read Bea as Bee without any given context.

Most people will say "bee" when they see Bea. Spelling it Beah will be more likely to get the pronunciation "bee-ah" since it's like Leah.
