HelpRe: Elizabeth - no nicknames
in reply to a message by Lily
I like the name Elizabeth. It's classic and timeless. There are also a lot of possible nns. I know you like the full name, but others using a nn is inevitable. It's too much for a little kid, but she'll grow into it.
When I was little, my family always called me Jennifer. Then, my sister, Susan was born. She was instantly Suzy, and our dad decided that I needed a nn too. That's when I became Jenny. I'm Jennifer at work now, and she's only Susan when I'm annoyed with her.
Our cousins Michelle and Stephanie hated being called Chelle and Steph- until college. Then, suddenly it didn't bother them. Their brother is Matthew. At school, he was Matt. Some relatives sometimes use it now, but he'll always be Matthew to me.
Some new names have no 'official' nns, but I sometimes call my niece Raelynn just Rae.
