Looking up a Turkish dictionary I was surprised about the lack of Turkish words starting in l-: There are only few of them and they seem all being borrowed from various languages (Arabic, Greek, French, International terminology, and even Polish (Lehistan)). I did not find anything looking like liz. This leaves two possibilities: The splitting of Ayliz into Ay and Liz is just the wrong idea, or Liz is the Western name Liz like in Liz Taylor: Ayliz is as beautiful as the moon and Liz Taylor.
