I have a niece named Elizabeth and I fondly refer to her as "lizard."

Isn't that funny, my top picks are William and Elizabeth right now too. I like Beth the best personally, but it would be great to hear Libby.

I chose Libby, which I really love. My second choice would be Eliza/Liza.

I do think Ellie is cute, but our only niece is named Ellie, so that would get a little too confusing.

I voted for Liza (also like Eliza, which is what my cousin goes by). I've known quite a few girls/women named this, all with various nns, so some of them I might not like because of personal associations (I've know a lot of really snobby girls who went by Beth, one Libby constantly called "Lippy" and two Liz's regularly referred to as "Lizard," as I've seen mentioned). I also like Lily, which wasn't on the list.

For Elizabeth I like Libby, Lizzie, Ellie, and Liza. Not a big fan of Beth, although I do like Bethany, lol! I think it's because growing up I knew of so many Beth's! Liz was pretty common too. Never liked the name Betty even though I have an aunt Betty I really like. Lissy/Lissie I really like, but not for Elizabeth, for names like Alison, Melissa, Alissa, Lisette, Lisanna, etc. Betsy is a cute nn, but not my fave.
