Bee is a girl’s name of Latin and Irish origin and can be a beautiful blend of names starting with the letter "B." Short and cheerful, Bee from Bridget classically means “strength” and “power” in Irish. However, in some early variations, Bee links to Beatrix and Beatrice, translating to “voyager” in Latin. Bee also sounds as sweet as honey and evokes images of summer meadows, lemonade, and sunshine.
