Lilibet

I personally love this name, it feels very feminine and timeless, however everytime i mention it to anyone they don’t like it and think it’s odd. Let me know your opinion 😊

Nicknames as names are kinda stupid most of the time, this is no exception and it’s extra cringe because you are most certainly not a relative of QEII.

i didn’t realise it was a nickname lmao, it had no royal connection 😭😭

It was QEII’s childhood nickname and used by Harry & Meghan, who clearly like nicknames as names.

Where have you heard the name if you 'didn't realise it was a nickname', then?

u/Fearless-Aide7871 23h ago

i’m not sure why you feel it’s a personal attack, no need to be passive aggressive 😬😬 I don’t revall where i heard the name but it seems a little long to be a nickname

What’s passive aggressive about the comment?

Do you know what passive aggressive means? And I don't feel it's a personal attack, babes. I just think it's absolute nonsense that you're claiming to have no idea it's a nickname formed from QEII not being able to say her name properly and you're refusing to reveal where you've heard it? What an odd response.

im not refusing anything? i said i didn’t remember. The fact you’re calling me babes is passive aggressive is it not?

“Where have you heard the name if you didn’t realize it was a nickname then?”

That’s the comment I’m referring to.
And again I wonder what did OP find passive aggressive about it?

I didnt know it was a royal nickname until I saw this post. I knew the name because I had seen it used before /:

Lol no, but I can see why you think that. I'm just bored and surprised that this many people dislike Lilibet so much.

But also I had no idea it was a royal nickname! Genuinely that was news to me. And even then I never would have thought that was so many peoples first association

Don't worry about these comments. Use it if you like it!! I think it sounds like a real name to me. Also, Lily is a cute nn for it if you ever want a nn or even Bet.
