“A lively shortened form of Elizabeth, derived from Hebrew Elisheba, meaning 'God's oath.' Made famous by Eliza Doolittle in 'My Fair Lady,' the name carries associations with wit, resilience, and transformation. Eliza became fashionable in the 18th century and has maintained steady popularity as both a standalone name and nickname, offering classical substance with playful charm.”
