Was there a British Royal tradition associated with the name Elizabeth?

Accepted answer
Collating some of the comments into an answer:
Over a few days, no answer came forward confirming the existence of such tradition, or of something closely related; while lack of evidence is not evidence, this suggest there isn't a widely known tradition of this kind.
Some of the terms are a bit ambiguous; "British Empire" as a term didn't come to be until 18th century, it is not clear-cut that Elisabeth I was the founder what later became the "British Empire" - further casting doubt on the existence of such a tradition.
Elizabeth II, at birth, was not that fact removed from the line. Her uncle and his future offspring were ahead of her, but for example should he die childless she would be in the running.
Most direct suggestion, from user @davidlol, mentions James V saying "it came with a lass and it will go with a lass", referring to the Stuart dynasty. Nothing to do with the empire or women named Elizabeth, but could conceivably be mutated into my teacher's suggestion.
