Olivia. I like it as a whole name and Liv/Oli.

Elizabeth is too regal for me and I don’t like Lizzy or Betty.

Olivia is beautiful. Liv/Livvy/Via

Elizabeth but I'd spell it Elisabeth

Why?

Elizabeth but only if you don't mind 'a liz' or 'Lizzie' or 'Betty' nickname as that will be inevitable

This. I know of 3 Elizabeths and all go by a shortened version.

Olivia. nn Liv or Lucie

Elizabeth

Popular but it’s a classic with so many short form options (don’t spell it Elisabeth unless you have a reason to - a cousin of mine has it spelt that way, drives her nuts)

Olivia has really been done to death, perfectly nice though it is

Elizabeth

Both are overrated and too common imho

KirstenBlest · 16/03/2023 10:58

Elizabeth, but decide on a diminutive
I like Olivia but it's been overpopular for too long.
