Looking for Irreverent Nickname for Elizabeth Line
 

I have never really liked the queen and I was annoyed that Crossrail is going to be named after her. What has she ever done?

So I am looking for a disrespectful way of referring to the Elizabeth Line while still being understood. I suppose Liz Line will be popular, along with Lizzy Line and Betty Line.

What was that name Private Eye gave her? I might use that.

It will be the only "tube" line with proper air-con,
so I'm calling it Unsweaty Betty.

It's very Ian Dury-ish!

Her Majesty has served her Country, and the Commonwealth, tirelessly
her entire life. What in the world has "offramp" done?

No doubt it will become the "Lizzy Line". The alliteration (look it
up offramp) is unavoidable.

Have you ever heard of good manners?

The fact that you don't like someone you have never met
does not entitle you to show disrespect. That you want to
show disrespect does not cast you in a good light.

You have given me a great idea! The Shizzle Line! A cross between **** and LIZZIE.
Thanks.

What about the Lizzy?

e27002 has made a superb suggestion, The SHIZZLE Line. It's a cross of **** and LIZZIE.
That'll do for me, Tommy!

Thank you Robin. I could not have said it better.
