Help[Opinions] Re: Elizabeth
in reply to a message by Perrine
1. It's my name and I come across a lot of people with it (in the UK), first name and middle name. It's not as common as Emily, Emma, Olivia, Isabella, etc. though.
2. I think being called Elizabeth in full is indeed do-able, although I personally go by Betsy (my great-grandmother's name).
3. I love the nickname Lizzie, actually.
4. Liz used to sound kind of dated to me, but it's growing on me. The 'z' is snazzy. Ellie is better as a nickname for Eleanor / Elinor in my opinion, but I like it and there's no real reason it shouldn't be short for Elizabeth.
5. Well, Betsy, because it's my nickname. I also love Lily though.
6. It's not boring at all! It's classic and timeless, and again, the 'z' is snazzy. I know quite a few.
