Elizabeth

Commonly understood as a Hebrew-origin name often glossed as 'my God is an oath' (glosses vary by source).

Elizabeth is a feminine given name with Hebrew roots and extremely long-standing usage across many regions and languages. In Christian tradition, it’s associated with Elizabeth (mother of John the Baptist), which contributes to its long cultural visibility. Etymologically, Elizabeth is typically traced to the Hebrew name often transliterated as Elisheva (also rendered Elisheba). Meaning glosses differ by source and by how the underlying Hebrew is analyzed, so you may see more than one conventional explanation. In English, pronunciation is commonly ih-LIZ-uh-beth (four syllables). The name is especially nickname-friendly: Liz, Beth, and Eliza are common, and many other short forms exist depending on preference.

Etymology: From the Hebrew name often rendered as Elisheva/Elisheba; different references give slightly different glosses.
