Re: Betsy/Elizabeth
in reply to a message by Christine
Well.... I happen to love the nn Betsy. With the current old fashioned name trend, I think you'll find that Betsy is not going to be as "out of place" as your family members think. I am 24 years old and have been called Betsy my entire life (sometimes Betsy Lou by my father). Only recently have I begun using Elizabeth professionally and even my immediate co-workers still call me Betsy. I think it is spunky, fun, and yet at the same time conveys that I am responsible and intelligent. I love my nn and am so pleased to see a "new generation" Betsy!

spunky, fun, responsible and intelligent - brilliant! That's what it says to me too.
