[Opinions] Re: Elizabeth
in reply to a message by Lily
Most of the Elizabeths I know go by Liz -- they're predominantly my age (21), though one of them is 60. I also know one who goes by Liza, two or three by Libby, and a few by Elizabeth (including my best friend, who introduced herself as Elizabeth when she got to college, only to be reduced reflexively to Liz by everyone; I've started calling her Elizabeth).I wish I knew more people who went by Bess / Bessie, Betsy, or Betty! I myself adore Elisabeth (strictly this spelling) both in full form and occasionally reduced to the aforementioned "B" nicknames.
