Yeah I have. Normally short for Beatrice, but I know a girl called Bryony who goes by Bea.

Bea is short for Beatrice.

You have a current princess in the UK that is called Bea. And a princess about 125 years ago too (Queen Victoria's youngest daughter).

NettoSuperstar! 18-07-2009 12:07 PM
Its fairly common particularly amongst the upper classes. One of the queens grandchildren is called Bea

EDIT: Sorry Cybele you got there before me
