Eliza is a very popular name in its own right. I suppose some Elizabeths might be called Eliza as a pet name, but Liz/Lizzie or Bessy/Bess/Beth is more common. I also have a family with an Elizabeth and an Eliza. There's also an Emma. I thought they probably had a dress with a big embroidered E on it they wanted to get the wear out of! nell |

At least 4/5 of my lot appear to have been called Eliza from birth Walter |

Don't forget Elizabeth can be shortened to Isabel, so your Eliza may also turn up as Isabel. Julie try www.whatsinaname.net |
