1) I don't particularly like it, because it sounds preppy to me (and in a way that Elizabeth does not).2) 2.753) No, I'd never use it in real life. 4) I dunno. Elise Antonia? Elise Wilhelmina? Elise Penelope? Elise Tzipora? Elise Rosamund? Elise Giovanna? 5) Other thoughts/comments: Despite not liking it overall, I think it strikes a balance between traditional and modern. It's short and sweet without being overwhelmingly boring or trendy.
...and on a scale of 1-5, I'd rate...Audrey Elise: 2.5
Clara Elise: 3

Good point about the balance. I'm curious how you preceive Elizabeth. To me, it's pretentious.

Elizabeth has been so common for so long that it's hard for me to view it as pretentious. I think it's an unoriginal but solid choice, as far as naming goes. I like the sound, and I can see the appeal. I'd put William in the same category, for guys.
