I prefer Elisa, though I like a lot of Al- names for girls. I love Aliza, but Alisa for some reason looks made up to me.

I looked Alisa up; it's actually a Russian version of Alice. So it IS real.

I like a lot of Al-names for girls because my grandfather, who I'm very close to, is named Albert. That's what drew me to the Al-spelling. :)

I'm aware it's legit, that's why I was saying that it *looks* made up to me. I'm also aware it's odd I like Aliza but not Alisa, but can't pinpoint why.
