I have become aware that several of Lisbeth's newer friends call her Lizzie. I have no idea why, nor does she. She didn't ask them to, or anything, they just started using it. She told me that a couple of people, quite independently, said they wanted to use 'Lizzie' because they liked it and felt that it really suited her.
I am finding it a bit confusing because some people call her Elizabeth, some French people call her Lisbeth (pronounced Liz-bet). Old friends and family call her Liz and now there's Lizzie. And none of these are her first, birth name, anyway!
P.S. If you want to pass a few useless moments, you can get your very own Chinese name based on your birth name (in proper Chinese writing) from this web page.
