Re: Elizabeth
in reply to a message by Chrisell
I've loved Elizabeth forever, but it's gotten so overly common that I would probably never use it. If it was a family name, though, I could be persuaded to use it as a mn. My grandmother's fn was Elsie, not short for anything, but Elsie is a short form of Elizabeth. Recently, I've fallen in love with the name Elspeth, which I'd like to use as a mn. It's the Scottish form of Elizabeth. It's different enough from Elizabeth, too, to set it apart imo. If I did ever use it as a fn, though, Elsie (or Elsa), is a good nn option. :)
