How should the first name "Bette" be pronounced? Is there any other first names similar to it?
bette is pronounced like 'bet'. a similar name would be 'brett' without the 'r'.
Reply:it can be either. "bet" or "betty"





like Bette (Bet) Midler or Bette (betty) Davis.
Reply:like bet, like gambling,


Take for instance Bette Midlar.





Here is her most overheard song I think

Reply:It should be pronounced Betty, like Bette Davis. Bette (Bet) Midler's mother thought Bette Davis' name was pronounced Bet, and named her daughter that. People today are more likely to think it's Bet. I'd go with Bettie.
Reply:well it depends


when i first saw it i thought it was pronounced


"Bet"


but with closer looking it could either be "Bet" or "Bet-ie"


if your using this name and want it to be pronounced like Betty then i suggest you spell it Betty or Bettie or Bettey - although it is a horrible name to be frank.





Similar names are:


Brett (like bet but with an R) Breh-t


Brit (Brih-t)


Bea (Bee/Bea)





hope that answers your question?
