Re: Elizabeth
in reply to a message by Canielle
Elizabeth is a perennial favorite of mine: I don't wax poetic about the name, but it's one I always come back to. A classic, and a lot of people have this name; but the myriad nicknames make it seem fresher (Ellie & Beth being my favorites).
I don't know about double-barreling something as long as Elizabeth; but I do know naming conventions in the southern US would indicate that a nickname for Elizabeth is said along with the middle (e.g. Elizabeth Ann "Betty Ann" or "Ellie Ann"). Not really my thing.
One of the combos I've been toying with is Elizabeth Bronwen. I also like Elizabeth Iris and Elizabeth Ivy.
