Does this make any sense at all as a nickname/contraction?

So my name is Lydia, and recently someone started calling me 'Ellie' ... I guess because of the 'Ly' part of my name. I just wanted to see what you guys think. I mean, I don't really care, not enough to the point where I'm going to correct her.

Thoughts, questions, comments, life stories, all are welcome.
