I wonder if its the feminine form of the male name Lyall itself a form of Lisle according to one of my name books
My book says
LISLE-From the french town,Lille,famous forthe fine cotten threads made there, thus strong,top quality thread. A name implying a fine character. Variants: lille ,lyall lyell,lyal
or maybe its from the male name litton
my book says
Litton from old english ,lytel=little, and tun =town village varients :lyle, lytel,lytton
