I wouldn't pronounce Bette and Betty the same. I am guessing from the other spelling you want bet-ee, so Betty.

I was going to agree with the first guest and say that Bette is pronounced as Bet as in Bette Midler. However, upon further research, I found Bette Davis who pronounces her name as Betty. That might be an issue in pronunciation though, so if you are intent on using Betty, I'd go with Betty. Just a suggestion, have you thought of using Elizabeth, and call her Betty for short? If not Betty Louise gmv. GL

Betty Jean gmv. Darling.

Dislike the Bettie spelling. Love Bette, but would pronounce it differently, one syllable "bet." Good luck! :0)
