I have always liked the name Lilibet (which is by the way a name quite popular in Central and South America) and we have been thinking to name our daughter Lilibet for quite a while. We were thrilled for this name to be chosen for the new Royal baby and I am sure it will become quite popular in the next few years. It is such a sweet name that combines vintage and witty in my view. Absolutely adorable.
What do you think? :-)

Too harsh sounding to me.

Or a tampon crossed with a bookies.

@Oldermum6

I think it’s an adorable nickname for someone who couldn’t say Elizabeth, but not a fan of it as a name in its own right.
ITA.

I think it's horrible, but that's just my opinion.
