Bettina von Arnim was a German writer, novelist and composer and a prominent figure in the German Romantic era. She is best known for her close friendships with Goethe and Beethoven.
Like Sabrina, this name sounds ultra-feminine to me, like the name of a girl who grows up dressing up like a little princess and wears pink, frilly, cutesy outfits well into her twenties. It's not a bad name, it is pretty, like Sabrina is, but it sounds like the name of a stereotypically girly young woman or little girl. It's not exactly a bimbo-ish name, just really feminine.
In the Betsy-Tacy books by Maud Hart Lovelace, Betsy is called "Bettina" by her sister Julia.
This is my name, and on the whole I like it, although people will try to call me Betty, which sounds like an old lady, or Tina, which I just don't like.
I love Bettina, it's very cute. My friend is called Bettina but for her it's either Betty or Tina because she doesn't seem to think the same.
