    • 1941, Helvi Hämäläinen, Säädyllinen murhenäytelmä, WSOY (2007), →ISBN, page 182:

      —You should not think about it, Elisabet, he said. —The word Elisabet has a taste like that of raspberry sweets—

Usage notes

[edit]
  • This form does not fit Finnish phonology well, and so it is rarely given it as a first name, though it is common enough as a middle name. The most common vernacular form is Liisa.
