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.
