Help[Opinions] Re: Elizabeth and her various nicknames
in reply to a message by Dianatiger
I love Elizabeth! And its absolute timelessness and wealth of nicknames is definitely part of my love.
I think it may have been you that I discussed the differences between Elisabeth and Elizabeth. I don't necessarily prefer one over the other but i seem naturally inclined to use the Z. Maybe because I know more Elzabeths?
I like Liz and Beth, but as a fellow 90s kid feel that maybe they aren't totally ready for a comeback? But the are definitely still good options and I agree with your descriptions.
Betty is probably my favorite other than Eliza (which is maybe more of its own name). I actually very much wish my husband would get behind Betty, it would solve so many problems.
Elle/Ella/Ellie are so pretty I only hesitate to truly like them because they all seem so popular 10 and under.
Other faves:
Bess, Liza, Lilibet
Maybe Betsy is ready for a comeback?

I think we did talk about that actually. I definitely prefer the S spelling over the Z but I suppose it would be a nuisance to have to correct people all the time. I'll tell you what: I once knew a women who spelled it Alizabeth and Ill admit, even though I may be in the minority I actually loved it! It gives me similar vibes as a flower name, perhaps because of Azalea.
