How would you pronounce this name? I guess I'm worried that people will pronounce it like "bee" or is it obvious?

I'd say 'Bee' and assume short for Beatrice

How is it intended to be pronounced?

This, although the only B I know is actually B shirt fit a different name beginning with B.

I thought it was 'bee'? Short for Beatrice? I could be wrong though, it's quite unusual. Unless you are going for the French name, short for Beatrice (there's a missing accent somewhere). That's 'Bay-a' I believe.
