Really nice name. PLus for me eliza doolittle = audrey hepburn and I struglle to find that a bad association!

What's the matter with being reminded of Eliza Doolittle?

Gorgeous name!!

Definately a name in its own right, but reminds me of Eliza Doolittle I'm afraid!

I prefer Elsa or Eloise but I'm not sure why.

My 2 year old DD is Eliza - so love it obviously. So cute and suits her perfectly. Definitely a name in it's own right. I didn't even consider using Elizabeth as I feel it's a totally different name. Our Eliza is often shortened to Lizzie though, NEVER Ellie. Getting a tad popular over here in Aust but still gorgeous!

Love it. The one thing that put us off this one was that the child would join the growing ranks of Ellies. Hundreds round here.

lovely, cute, classy but tradional

Name in it's own right, bit too old fashioned for me.

Eliza is so pretty, really nice name in it's own right

i love it too and would have chosen it for a girl if we had one. I would have had same dilemma too, and would have seriously considered Eliza as nn for Elizabeth on certificate - we also liked Lizzie and Elizabeth so would have kept the options open. I really like Eliza in own right though too and think it's more of a statement

Has been used as stand alone name earlier than C19 even, and think is fine to use so now.
However, have known people avoid Eliza in case of potential shortening to Ellie.

Personally would still put Elizabeth on the birth cert, I confess my cat has Elisabeth on official records. Plus the wealth of other nick names Elizabeth/Elisabeth offers.
