[Opinions] Liesel
WDYTO Liesel (LEE-zel) for a girl? I used to love it when I was younger. Not sure if I would ever use it as it sort of rhymes with my own name, but I'm really starting to like it again.What middle names would you use with it? Thank you.

It makes me think of the "Sound of Music" movie. That's what is attractive about it to me.

It's my username :) but I like it spelled Liesl.

I strongly dislike Liesel because it's too nicknamey and tacky. There are so many great diminutives of Elisabeth that I don't see why anyone would use Liesel.

I like Liesel (and Liesl) well enough, but be aware that it rhymes with weasel. How do I know this, you ask? My sister, Lisa, was nn'd Liesl which turned into weasel. It could happen ... ;-)

Yeah my name rhymes with weasel too. My mum used to call me Weasel.

Liesel? That rhymes with weasel... and I don't think you want her to be known as a weasel in class. :/ It's a better middle name IMO, but it's still nice.

I might be a little biased because it's my nickname, but I love it! :D
I don't know if I love it as much as a full name though.

I love Liesl, but only this spelling. I take advantage when I can put two letters "legitimately" together that normally don't get to. Plus, Liesel reminds me of diesel fuel.Liesel Charlotte / Carlotta
