HelpRe: Elizabeth
in reply to a message by Perrine
1. Do you prefer Elizabeth or Elisabeth? I love Elisabeth. The softness of the s really speaks to me. But Elizabeth is a classic.
2. Which nickname would you use? Bess. I love Bess so much! I also think Betsy is cute and Eliza is beautiful.
3. What is your favorite short form or nickname to use on its own? See above. I wanted to name first child Bess, but unfortunately before we ever even thought of getting pregnant my MIL named her dog Bessie.
4. Is it common where you are? It's not uncommon. I don't hear it everywhere, but as I high school teacher I usually have one or two a year. And a friend of mine recently named her daughter Elizabeth.
5. Is it too boring as a middle name? It depends. I hate it when people don't know what to do as a middle and just grab something that is everywhere. But It's such a gorgeous name that I say go for it!
