Help[Opinions] Re: Bette
in reply to a message by Moony2
Bette, pronounced Bet, is the French version of Betty. The actress, Bette Davis, was named by her mother after a character in a French book she'd been reading; most people apparently assumed that it was just a Hollywood version of Betty and pronounced it in two syllables - as in the song, 'Bette Davis Eyes'.
