HelpRe: Elizabeth
in reply to a message by hennig
Elizabeth's a timeless classic, and my all-time favourite female name. It's beautiful, elegant, elaborate without being too much, and very solid yet at the same time absolutely feminine. It has such great namesakes too: Elizabeth I of England, Elizabeth Taylor, even the murderess Elizabeth Bathory (the last is great purely for the coolness factor); and probably many more that I'm forgetting.
Elizabeth's far too pretty imo to use a nn in everyday life. However, I do like Beth, Betsy, Eliza (also as an independant name), Bess, and Bessie as very occasional nns. But ultimately the choice of a nn--or not--would fall to my daughter herself.
