22:33:36  How would you pronounce Eliza? Like Elizabeth (ee) or
like Liza (eye) Minelli?  Like Liza Minnelli  Like lye. Ih lye
zuh.  In the same way as Horrace does.  TeamEdward Thu 04-Jul-13

04-Jul-13 22:42:24  I think of using it as a nn for Elizabeth.
So would it not be pronounced exactly the same way as the first
part of the name?  othersideofchannel Thu 04-Jul-13 22:46:28
I'd say El-eeza but can also imagine El-yza.  thistlelicker Thu
