I would say the most obvious would be "Bea"--but that reminds me too much of Bea Arthur from the Golden Girls, and while I find her character hilarious...she's a bit gruff sometimes and I can't imagine calling a sweet little girl that same name.
Bess and Tess are cute, but I don't think either of them are as obvious a nn for Beatrice as Bea is...and maybe this is a stretch too, but I think it's kind of cute: what about Trixie?
Best of luck to you!
Good Luck!!

I love the nn Trixie for Beatrice. I think I am about the only one though! lol Another one I can think of is Tracey. I don't particularly care for Bea, and I don't understand how Bess and Tess can from from Beatrice!
Just my 2cents!

Good luck!
Funny though that I don't love the name Beatrice but I do love the nn Bea!
I see where Bess and Tess come from Be-ah-Tress. Tess from the Tress part and Bess from the first letter and Tress. Though I know some pronounce it Be-ah-triss.
The Golden Girls reference won't be around for our children's generation so I wouldn't even consider that.

I also like Bess.
I don't like Bea (Golden Girls - Bea Arthur) or Tess (because I don't see how that comes from Beatrice. Triss, yes, but not Tess).
