Phoenix is growing in popularity for both genders-- a little Phoenix will not seem so strange in a few years. Nor will an Adelaide.
Betty Jean is very familiar, and I highly doubt a child with such a name will be frowned upon, or that people will whisper "Oh, her name is so strange!" to each other. Plus, Betty's got a similar sound to Maddy, which is epically popular.
I'd worry more about prn issues, or really horribly dated names. Caoimhe and Doris will have much more trouble than Betty.

I agree. Names like Maddy and Abby are trendy so a Betty would probably fit right in.
