Lizzy Origin and Meaning

The name Lizzy is a girl's name.

Lizzy is a feminine name primarily used as an affectionate diminutive of Elizabeth, which has Hebrew origins meaning 'God is my oath' or 'pledged to God.' This friendly, approachable nickname gained independent usage in the 19th century and continues to be chosen as a standalone name today. Lizzy projects a youthful, spirited, and warm personality while maintaining connections to the regal history of Elizabeth.
