DH and I were considering Eliza for our DD but then we realized we kept referring to her as Liza as a NN and decided just to call her Liza since it's pointless to give the formal name Eliza if we were just going to drop the -e-. So, Liza seemed like the more appropriate and perfect choice for us and our little girl.

I choose Liza. My name is Elizabeth so Eliza just looks like somebody forgot the rest of my name :o)

I voted for Eliza as it seems a little more 'proper' feeling to me. I'd rather Elizabeth, nn Eliza (for when she grows up.. Eliza or Liza looks a bit lost on a business card!) but I much prefer Eliza to Liza. My image of a Liza ia Liza Minelli while my image of an Eliza is Audrey Hepburn playng Eliza Doolittle. Eliza wins, hands down!

I like Eliza a lot and really wanted it for our 2nd DD, but DH vetoed it. Grrrr! Anyway, that gets my vote, and you can always use Liza as a nn.

Eliza is one of my very most favorite names.
