Why Lzzy Hale but not Lizzy Hale?

Answer 1

It's all about marketability. The better you market yourself, the better your chances of success.

You can Google "Lizzy" and have multiple names pop up, but guaranteed...you google "Lzzy" and only one name pops up. :)

It simply looks cool to spell it Lzzy instead of Lizzy. Reason for Prince only calling himself one name...or Cher.

Marketability.

"The Rock" is much cooler than "Dwayne Johnson" (now that he is famous it doesn't matter so much lol.

I had a band called "Decendant" a couple years ago. We purposely misspelled it, Like "Ratt" ... simply put, it's all about what people may think is cool. lol
