[Opinions] Ele
Okay, my fave name ever is Elizabeth. The problem is, there are so many Elizabeths, not to mention Beths, Lizzies, Elizas etc. for their nn. I wouldn't want my child to be Lizzie W. or Elizabeth W. or whatever, because that happened to me and I HATED--ABHORED!!-- it! But then it ccame to me-Elle. Or even better-Ele. Do you like that? I also sorta like Zizi and Libby. Do you? I need opinions. Do you think Brett could be a nn? Because that is also a name I love. And which sounds best for a mn? Elizabeth:Ireland(I think this is cool since Elizabeth is so ordinary), Claire, Lily, Lilian? Write what ya think!!!

I like Elle as a nn for Elizabeth (I've also heard of "Zabeth" as a nn for Elizabeth). My brother even went to school with a girl named Elle Elizabeth, which I think is sort of overkill but yeah. I like Elizabeth Ireland - its a twist on what could be a bit of a boring name but I love Elizabeth Claire.
Zabeth...hmmm, that's kinda cool!
I also love Elizabeth. A lovely name, and versatile for nicknames too. Elle is OK, but doesn't really seem to flow from Elizabeth. (I know, I know, Betty and a zillion others don't either.) Nevertheless, I still think Elle is somewhat of a stretch.
Zizi -- well, I don't know. That one would require some thought.
Libby -- Cool. Cute.
Elizabeth Claire is one I considered for a girl. Then rejected because I though she would be E Claire. You know, like the pastry, an eclair. I think I was overthinking that one! Anyway, yes, Elizabeth Claire is my favorite.

I'd never thought of E. Claire/eclair before!
I think Elle is a very nice nn for Elizabeth (probably the one I like best), but I don't really like it spelled Ele. I just met someone named Elizabeth nn Biz and I thought it was very cute. I like Biz better than Zizi and Libby. I like Brett, too... I think anything could really be a nn, so if you like it, go for it. Also, Lily can be a nn for Elizabeth, and I know you liked that for a possible mn, so maybe you could use that for a nn instead.
I think Elizabeth Claire flows best, but it is pretty boring. I think Elizabeth Ireland is cool, but it is kinda hard to say. Elizabeth Lily/Lilian are OK, but they sound repetitive to me because Lily can be a nn for ELizabeth.

I LUUUUUUV LILY AS A NN! THANK YOU!
I know someone whose fn/mn are Elizabeth Ann and she goes by EB for a nn, just saying the letters E and B together. Elle I think is a great nn or even name on it's own, although I'd never use it. Zizi is interesting, probably what I'd use because it's different and unique. Libby's OK, NMSAA. Brett, no--has nothing to do with Elizabeth at all. I think Elizabeth Ireland is nice. Elizabeth Claire goes well together, but they are both a bit too ordinary for my taste.

I love the name Elizabeth too! And Zizi is a first-rate nn for Elizabeth, imo... I've never thought of that before, so many props to you.
Elle/Ele would work, but people might assume that her name was Ellen. My friend Ellen is called Elle all the time.
Brett, to me, is a plain and simple boy's name, and it would a little hard to explain how you got Brett from Elizabeth, which is definately a girl's name.
I actually like Ireland Elizabeth better; it was on my top ten at one point. Elizabeth Claire is very pretty! I think that Lily/Lillian Elizabeth flows better than Elizabeth Lily/Lillian, but I do Like Elizabeth Lily very much.

Do you hear the people sing? Lost in the valley of the night. It is the music of the people who are climbing to the light! For the wretched of the earth, there is a flame that never dies. Even the darkest night will end and the sun will rise...
