Origin: Hebrew

Meaning: God's promise

Of all the adorable nicknames for Elizabeth, the two-syllable Eliz takes the cake. It's most common for baby girls and means "God's promise" in Hebrew. Without that extra 'e,' as in Elize, this pick reveals its edgier side, sure to inspire a bold and beautiful warrior in your little munchkin. It's also got a bit of French and German flair thanks to Beethoven's iconic composition, “Für Elise.”
