Meaning & origin

Louiza is a feminine name that first appeared in U.S. records in 1915, reaching its peak popularity in 1923. In recent years, it has been declining in use, with a notable drop since 2022. While not currently among the top 1,000 names, Louiza retains a classic charm through its connection to the royal and historic name Louisa. Its spelling with a 'z' offers a distinctive alternative to the more common Louisa or Louise.

Louiza is a variant of Louisa, the feminine form of Louis, which originates from the Germanic name Chlodowig, composed of elements meaning 'fame' and 'warrior'. The name has been used across Europe, particularly in French and German-speaking regions, and was introduced to England in the 17th century.
