原文: I love the name Betsy. It's vintage, simple and sweet. I named my daughter Elizabeth but she goes by Betsy, Lilybets or Bets. I almost don't want to "give away" my nicknames since they're so original and I love that she won't be one of five Betsy's in her class. Every name can have a negative reference if you're looking for it... like the cow. But that's actually Bessie and Elsie. The name Elsie is coming back too! It's just so adorable and spunky.
原文: I've been called Betsy since I was a week old (my real name is Elizabeth), and I've always liked it. I don't know any other Betsys (old or otherwise), so I feel that it's more unique than nicknames like Liz or Beth. And yes, I do find it insulting when people call my name "soppy" or say they associate it with cows. Fortunately I've never gotten such comments in real life.The only problem I've had with this name is that because it's so uncommon nowadays, many people don't know it's a nickname, and when they find out my real name is Elizabeth they get very surprised and say, "Wait, where does 'Betsy' come from? Is that your middle name?"

翻译文: Betsy的名字是这么古老,可爱,漂亮! :)
原文: The name Betsy is so vintage, cute and pretty! :)
原文: I am a 5th generation Betsy. The first two were Elizabeth. I have been called a brown cow. Not particularly flattering, but there are worse things to be associated with.
原文: If someone wants to name their daughter BETSY, I don't see that as a problem. Many of the names people now considered proper started out as diminutives/nicknames. For example, many names are derived from Elisheba, Hecate, Margarita, etc. Some people are put off by how long Elizabeth is (4 syllables!) and they pick Elise, Lisa, Lilian, Lisbet, Beth, Betsy instead, it's quite normal. At least Betsy sounds nice and it rolls off the tongue.

翻译文: 美国女演员贝琪安布兰特(Breaking Bad)携带的名字好!
原文: The American actress Betsy Ann Brandt (Breaking Bad) carries the name well!
原文: Used as a name or as a nickname, "Betsy" definitely sounds better than "Betty." It's also more endearing than Betty. It's also not that popular, which is great, a "Betsy" is not likely to share this name with anyone else in a classroom, job, or recreational setting. Not everyone wants to go by a super popular name - Emma, Amy, Isabella/Bella, Madison, Mckenzie, Olivia, etc - and be the 3rd or 4th person in a crowd with that exact name. I gotta say I love "Betsy," it's upbeat and fun, easy to pronounce, and it can be memorable - people usually remember the 'Betsy' they met somewhere.
原文: I love this name. I haven't seen any Betsy's by the time I posted this comment. I don't see why some people prefer a much longer form such as Beatrice or Elizabeth over this name. I will still use this name on its own instead of it being a nickname. To me, Betsy is a very cute and sweet name. It looks cute on a young girl and sweet on an old lady. Overall, Betsy is a very lovely name to me. If I ever have a daughter, her name will be Betsy.
原文: The Betsy Wetsy is a doll made by Ideal Toy Company whose special feature is urination. Named after its inventor's daughter, it was first developed in the 1930's by Abraham Katz.

原文: Betsy Palmer is an American actress. She was best known for being a panelist on the game show "I've Got a Secret," and for playing Jason's mother, Pamela Voorhees, in the horror film "Friday the 13th."
原文: There was a hurricane of this name in 1965. When it devastated both Florida and Louisiana (even flooding about 35 percent of New Orleans, compared to 2005's Katrina, which was about 80 percent), it became the United States' first billion-dollar hurricane, with damage totals over $1.4 billion. This made Betsy the costliest hurricane at the time, but it was later surpassed by subsequent hurricanes.
原文: Despite all the annoying girls I've met with this name, I like it. If it wasn't for the encounters I've had with other Betsy's then I would've probably named my future daughter Betsy.I don't understand how others prefer Elizabeth where it's so overused and unoriginal that it makes me want to gag. I can honestly say I like this name and I will continue to hold my ground to defend it.It's cute and easy to pronounce whereas Elizabeth has one too many syllables for my taste.

原文: Betsy Stewart Andropolis, a character played by Meg Ryan, on the soap opera, "As The World Turns" in the early 1980's.
原文: I'm very surprised to see all the negative comments about Betsy! I think it's a sweet name and a good nickname for Elizabeth. Refreshing too with so many Liz's out there.
原文: This is one of my best friend's names. Well, it's her nickname for Elizabeth, but Betsy is what everyone calls her. She liked it all through elementary school, then she started to hate it around middle school and tried to get teachers to call her Elizabeth, but then in high school she seemed to like it again and didn't insist on being Elizabeth. I've known her since I was about 5, so I never thought of this name as really old-fashioned or anything. I picture most people with this name as nice and sweet, whether they're old ladies or little kids.
原文: This is one of one of my best friends. (We're 13.) At first, this name was hard for me to use because it sounded so "old-lady", but after I got used to it I have come to love the way it sounds. Oh, and she spells it Betsie. Ha, everyone tries to spell and say it Bestie. I love this name, although I probably wouldn't use it on my child. Oh, and I like it better than Betty, when you say Betty too fast in the wrong dialect is sounds like "Bitty". Ew.
原文: I used to think this name was prissy and immature until I went to college and met a girl with it. She is sweet and outgoing, and always has a smile on her face. Now I think of it as a great name, vivacious and cheerful.
原文: Definitely among the worst nicknames there are for Elizabeth. Even Betty is better. The only nicknames I really like for Elizabeth are Liz and Elsie, the rest of them are quite awful. I hope people don't start naming their kids this again instead of going for Elizabeth.
原文: A famous bearer is American children's author Betsy Byars (born August 7, 1928) She is well-known for her 1971 novel 'Summer of the Swans,' for which she won the Newbery Medal.
