Let G be a simple algebraic group over an algebraically closed field k of characteristic 2. We consider analogues of the Jacobson-Morozov theorem in this setting. More precisely, we classify those nilpotent elements with a simple 3-dimensional Lie overalgebra in 𝔤 := Lie(G) and also those with overalgebras isomorphic to the algebras Lie(SL₂) and Lie(PGL₂). This leads us to calculate the dimension of Lie automiser 𝔫_𝔤(k·e)/𝔠_𝔤(e) for all nilpotent orbits; in even characteristic this quantity is very sensitive to isogeny.
