It might be a form of Lauza', which according to The Complete Book of Muslim & Parsi Names by Maneka Gandhi & Ozair Husain means "sagacious" or "witty" in Arabic; or a form of Lauzah, which according to the same authors is Arabic for "almond".

LauzahNo, but it seems obvious from her answer that it is the name Lauzah she was thinking of.
