Bee?


Just watched this movie, after reading the book a few months back. I thought the same thing when reading the book, but who the heck names their kid just "Bee"? As a nickname, maybe, but what a stupid given name! And in the movie, when they're teens, and she tells Dawson she wants to have a daughter named Bee someday, he says "That's a pretty name." I actually said out loud, while watching it by myself, "It's not a name!"

The name is Bea, short for Beatrice.

Yup, Bea. Very common southern name- like Bea Arthur and Aunt Bea on Andy Griffith.
