[Opinions] Bebe/Bibi
What would your preferred full name for this nickname be? I’m thinking feminine but if you think it would work as a masculine or gender neutral nickname then feel free to suggest full names for that. Thanks :)

I think it could work for most B names, maybe Bailey, Bellamy, or Benedict.

My friends called me Bibi / BB when I was younger, and my mom still calls me that sometimes. My name is Betsy.

Thank you! I was named after my great-grandmother. My full name is Elizabeth but no one ever calls me that :)

My sister got the nickname Bambi which then evolved into Bibi, so there's one. Balbina also comes to mind. But from reasonable choices, I'd say Beatrice. Although, I think Babette and Barbara could also work with their two b's. But even many names just beginning with b, I think, could make this nickname work. I wouldn't bat an eye at Brianna, Bryony or Bianca going by Bibi. Or even, Gabrielle -> Gabbie -> Bibi. I think a nn this simple can be stretched pretty far.

I know a Beatrice nn Bibi and a Beatrix nn Bee. Both of these are beautiful and could work with the nickname. Bibi is also masculine Hebrew nickname for Benjamin.

Beatrice or Beatrix would probably be my first choice. Belinda might be cute too.

I know a Barbara, an older lady, whose nn is Bibi. Maybe Brenda could lead to Bebe?
