As far as Elizabeth goes, you left out the classic nn's of Liza and Beth. I guess in today's world those are dated, but they are what I would choose.
Also, funny story- my daughter is Natalie. I originally thought her nn could be Ali but definitely not Nat. Well, NO one ever latched on to the Ali idea and she does get called Nat by a few. Oh well!
Unfortunately, with our last name beginning with A, I could not name her any of those. Allison/Alyssa would have been nn'd Ali, but I think I would have shortened to Lexi had I gone with Alexandra. Honestly, we had so many great choices it was hard to narrow it down even w/o using A first names!
My daughter Kiersten chose Kit as a nickname at age 7...but when she went off to college she reverted to Kiersten when meeting new people. So she's Kit to everyone she knew before the age of 18 & Kiersten to everyone she met after.
You forgot a most crucial nickname for Sebastian - Sea Bass! xD
While nicknames are fun I actually prefer the full name. My children are Victoria and Michael without nicknames.
Beautiful and timeless names in and of themselves!!!
gorgeous names 🖤
Nicknames are a sign of affection. Have your children been given nicknames by friends or family members?

SO many amazing options for Elizabeth I couldn’t fit! I particularly adore Beth because of Little Women.
Truly, you didn't even make a dent!
I didn't see Bess or Bessie ...or Liz, the most common of all.
Lilibet was used long before Harry converted it into a first name!
If you had named her Alexandra, Alexandria, Alison, Aletha, Althea, Alyssa or Alexa, I'm sure you would have had a little Ali!
I would call her Tallie. It's lovely, a bit unusual, and does give a clue as to what her given name actually is!

My children James and Tegan go by James (me) and Jimmy (his wife) and Teg (me) and Tigs (her partner).

I know someone who nicknamed their son Les from Charles!
Love Gia as a Georgia nn
We have an Eva, short for Evangeline, and a Remi, short for Remington. I'm very pleased with the names we chose!
Eva and Remi are so fun and spunky!
Elizabeth nickname Lizzy or Lizzie.
You forgot Beth for Elizabeth!
My name is Victoria, and I go by Vikki
You should do nicknames for Evangeline.
You missed Lizzy for Elizabeth.
