There is something really cute about the name Liza. I can't decide if I like Eliza or Liza more.

In Croatia this name is pronounced LEE-zah.

Liza Dalby, the first ever Western woman to become a geisha (a traditional Japanese female dancer and musician).

This is the name of the lady in the nursery rhyme, There's a Hole in My Bucket.

Can be also pronounced Liz-AH.

My name is Liza, and I think its unique, but I also find it kind of harsh. I also HATE it when I get called Lisa. It's Liza with a Z not Lisa with and S, and it's LI instead of LEE. Not that hard people. My real name is Elizabeth, but I have never, nor will never go by it, I find it pretentious. If I were to pick another nickname it would probably be Betsy, although I'm pretty sure I would get sick of that soon :)

Liza is a species of fish.
