History & Origin

Lizann is one of the run-together double names that families gave as a single legal first name, joining Liz to Ann. Liz shortens Elizabeth, Hebrew for 'my God is an oath'; Ann is Hannah, 'grace.' The blend has the neat symmetry of the nineteen-fifties, when Ann-endings turned many names into two-part compounds.

Lizann was never common, given to only about fourteen girls a year around 1959 and fading afterward. A woman named Lizann is in her mid-sixties today, born when Liz and the -ann suffix were both in vogue, alongside Ruthann and Joann.

Did you know? Lizann folds two classics into one: Liz, short for Elizabeth, and Ann, the old Hebrew 'grace', a favorite mid-century recipe for double names.
