1. Lizzie
2. Elise
3. I prn it JUHL-ee-ah, and I'm swedish, so it's 3 syllables isn't it?
4. I prn it WIHL-ee-ahm or WIL-yam, so how many syllables depends on how I prn it that day, but most often WIL-yam, so 2 syllables?
5. I like Elizabeth as a middlename. I also like Clara and Annie but I would spell it Klara. And of these I would most likely use Klara. 6. I like John, William, James, Joseph, Henry, Thomas, Edward, Walter (would spell it Valter) and Arthur. And of these I would most likely use Arthur, James, Thomas, Joseph, John or William.
