I was trying to make an example of the enormous quantity of Russian diminutives that can be made from any given name and only managed to come up with about 3 for each one, so for all you native speakers out there -

How many diminutives can be made from Елизавета?

It's got several syllables so it should be a good one! We can get about 11 diminutives from the english variant...
Спасибо!!

there are also things like lizabeth, lizbet, ilsabet

but those are really uncommon, I seem to end up with funny nicknames
