Meanings and history of the name Aliza

Hebrew word for 'joy, joyful'.
Note to the writer: I disagree with the meaning you have chosen for the name Eliza. It derives from Elizabeth. Aliza (beginning with an A) probably has the meaning you suggest, but I maintain Eliza is a different name from Aliza.

^well this is for the name Aliza not Eliza, so I am confused. Aliza definitely means joyful.

Means "joyful" in Hebrew.
