"Variant of Elizabeth"
The name Eliz is commonly a female name from the "Hebrew" origin.
Eliz is a shortened form of Elizabeth, made by clipping the name after its fourth letter and keeping the z of the original spelling. Short forms of this kind are recorded in more than one European language; in Hungarian, Eliz is used as a diminutive of Erzsébet, the Hungarian form of Elizabeth.
Elizabeth means "Paradise".
The pronunciation of Eliz is EL-iz.
