In the sunlit amphitheater of names, Lyza (pronounced ly-ZUH) emerges as a graceful offshoot of the venerable Elizabeth, born from the Hebrew elisheba—“my God is an oath”—and reborn with an Italianate flourish. She drifts through memory like a Vespa weaving between Florence’s pastel facades, her two syllables ringing against ancient stone and spilling warmth like a fresh scoop of gelato on a midsummer afternoon. Though still rare—just 34 baby girls in the US wore her name in 2024, placing her 916th in popularity—Lyza artfully balances simplicity and surprise, promising steadfast loyalty with a playful wink, as delightful and unexpected as a sunset over the Tuscan hills.
