Comments for the name Bettye

When I first saw this name, I thought it was pronounced Bet-yeh.

Personally, I think this name looks like a typo.

The 'e' at the end looks just wrong.

Bettye LaVette is an immensely talented singer who went largely unnoticed by the industry until her 2005 album, I've Got My Own Hell to Raise. She is best called a soul singer, but her style crosses genres such as gospel, Motown, rock, and funk.

'Bette' I like, 'Bettie' I can understand. But 'Bettye' is just a step too far in terms of creative spelling. It does look like a typo. It's just silly.

This is my middle name and I constantly get remarks towards it. Most of the remarks are directed towards the spelling mostly. But a lot of people do find the name very cute when they say it & it does come with a lot of nicknames. Sometimes I wish I would constantly go by Bettye because it's just that cute when you say it.
