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 😊

The Sussexes used this as a name, not a nickname, to both honor the child's great grandmother, and to not give her the same name. It's had a recent surge of popularity. I think the reasons are obvious. It really feels to me that using it would be trendy.

They didn’t use it to honour her. They used it out of spite against her wishes.
