So, this name has been thrown around on here a few times, and I like it, especially the herbal association. It'd also be a nice alternative to Bethany or Brittany. WDYT? What would you pair Betony with, combo-wise?

I love Betony!

My favorite combos with it are Betony Estelle, Betony Winifred, and as a middle name, Anna Betony.

All three combos are sweet, especially Betony Estelle.

I think it sounds like Bethany with a weird accent, and that's exactly why I don't like it. I remember once getting a wrong-number phone call and the person, in a very abrupt, harsh voice, demanded to speak to somebody named Anthony, and they said it so it sounded like "Wurr's Ant-nee?" So Betony just sounds like that same person wanting to talk to Bethany.

It isn’t really my taste. It makes me think of Bethany and botany colliding in dark corridor.
