Can the name Lissie be short for Elizabeth?

Question

my name is lissie and i am in the 10th grade and i want to know if lissie is short for elizabeth

Answer

Yes, im use to that name spelled as Lizzy or Lizzie. You can use Lissie short for Elizabeth.

Answer

Anything can be short for anything. In Mexico, Pancho is short for Francisco. In England, Tudder is short for Edward. In USA, people named Elizabeth are called Beth, Betty, Liza, Lizzie, Ellie, and some others. It makes me wonder why parents give a kid one name and then call them some other name. It would make better sense to just wait and see what people want to call the kid.

Answer

It's your choice, anything could be a nickname even if it doesn't sound like the real name
