i mean, daisy is kind of a stretch for margaret, but it’s such an established nickname that it makes it usable. i’d say the same about elisabeth ‘lily’.

Stretch? Maybe. Doable? 100%.

I wouldn’t personally go for that nickname option, but if I ran across an Elisabet(h) “Lily” IRL I wouldn’t think much of it. It’s a pretty option!

That said, I’d personally go for Lilibet(h) “Lily.”

Lily is actually a very traditional nickname for Elizabeth!

I think it’s definitely doable.

Is there a reason you don’t just use lily? It’s a great name!

Sure, a stretch, but I think it could work!

I think it’s definitely doable! A stretch? Maybe just? But I would not think of it an issue.
I actually think it’s really sweet :slight_smile:
