Re: Where do you get this information?

probably if it is seen to be a combination of "yv"/"iv" which means "yew" or "bow" (see IVOR ) with Lise/Lisa, which is somtimes said to mean "devoted to God" (like taking have of the meaning of Elisabeth). But even then it would still be a modern combination and doesn't have a real scandinavic/germanic origin (apart from the "iv" part)
