Beatrice is an elegant and distinctive given name of Latin origin, meaning 'she who brings happiness'. It was popularized by Dante Alighieri's Divine Comedy, where Beatrice was the beloved character who served as a guide to the poet through heaven. The name has since been associated with intelligence, grace, and artistic inspiration. Its unique pronunciation, often rhyming with 'deer' or 'beet', adds to its charm and memorability.
"In 1921, there were five babies named Beatrice."
