Both are lovely so this was tough! I do enjoy [name_f]Elisabeth[/name_f] and I love [name_f]Beth[/name_f], but I think I like [name_f]Emmeline[/name_f] best - it’s elegant and soft
[name_f]Frances[/name_f], [name_f]Emmeline[/name_f] and…

My ex-roommate is [name_f]Elisabeth[/name_f]. I misspelled her name initially, but once I actually found out she uses s spelling, I started to like it a lot, sometimes even more than the z.
Out of these two I think I slightly prefer [name_f]Emmeline[/name_f], but not sure I like [name_f]Emmeline[/name_f] [name_f]Elisabeth[/name_f] as a combo.
I really prefer [name_f]Elisabeth[/name_f]. I think saying “[name_f]Elizabeth[/name_f], with an S” would probably become a habit, but I’m an [name_f]Alexandra[/name_f] “Not [name_f]Alexandria[/name_f], no I” so maybe it’s not so bad in my mind. I also think [name_f]Elisabeth[/name_f] and [name_f]Frances[/name_f] make a better pair.
As for middle names, I love [name_f]Elisabeth[/name_f] with a really offbeat or obscure middle. Like [name_f]Elisabeth[/name_f] [name_f]Sunday[/name_f] or [name_f]Elisabeth[/name_f] [name_f]Enna[/name_f]. [name_f]Elisabeth[/name_f] [name_f]Spring[/name_f]. [name_f]Elisabeth[/name_f] Minnow. [name_f]Elisabeth[/name_f] [name_f]Xanthe[/name_f]. Maybe choose something meaningful to you and your family and use that word instead, to keep the importance without using a direct honor name.
