I think "Izzy" as a nn is SO CUTE! However most first names that that have the nn "izzy" are Elizabeth and Isabel/Isabella or some variation. I don't like Isabel/le/la and i'm not that crazy about Elizabeth. Are there any other options??

Hi there. I agree that Izzy is adorable!

How about Isadora? It's much more unique then the Elizabeth/Isabel(la), & is a nice strong name to fall back on if your little girl grows out of Izzy as a grown up.

Hope this helps!

I really like both suggestions of Eliza and Isadore/Isadora.


You could also go with a name that ends in "issa" like: Carissa, Clarissa, Larissa, Marissa or Nerissa. Also, Theresa/Teresa might be a bit of a stretch, but I love it.


Good luck. I think Izzy is an adorable nn also. I hope you find a full-name for it that you love!

You've received some great suggestions. Would any of these work for you?

Carys - it's a stretch, but Carys is a lovely name and I think you can get Izzy from it!
Elise - very pretty too and you can definitely get Izzy from Elise.
Clarice
Denise
Isis - a bit "out there", but you can still get Izzy
Jezebel - not a good namesake, but you can get the nn Izzy.
Lisette

Good Luck!
