Bethan

[portabello]

Your thoughts please lovely ladies!

Love it, so much nicer than Bethany

I like it very much, but it's really popular at the moment (if that bothers you) I know of 3 born last year and 2 this year amongst friends and there are 2 in my DSs baby massage class.
If DS had been a girl I think we'd have chosen Bethan!

Really dislike it. Think the Beth sound is drippy

Love it.

Adore it. Not popular at all, don't know of any young Bethans. Beth is one of those names that will never date too.

BethAn is lovely, but it really grates on me when people say BethUn.

My DGD is Bethany and I much prefer Bethan. Am hoping she will become Beth when she is old enough to decide for herself. (Don't tell my DS or DIL though!)

It's odd no one else has noticed it's popularity, maybe it's a Welsh thing? Still love it though!

I think it sounds dated - it was immensely popular about ten years ago together with Megan.

Bethan is lovely, rarer, and therefore better, than Bethany, though Bethany is not Not Nice, if you know what I mean.

Think it is a welsh thing guacamole dh is welsh so we called dd bethan but as we live in Scotland people find it a really odd name and repeat it back to me as if they have heard incorrectly.

Op I think the name is lovely but I might be slightly biased

Ooh my friend Beth would have something to say about the 'drippy' comment... She can be terrifying :o

I love it but could never use it as it rhymes with our surname!

I love it. I prefer it pronouced Beth-anne rather than Bethun.

I don't hear it as an attractive name. Sorry. But I would say it was a 'safe' name IKWIM.

I don't like it but that's probably because it's so popular here in Wales.
