Alize is French in Origin.
Alize is a modern given name most closely linked to the French Alizé/Alizée, from the French noun alizé, “trade wind,” ultimately via Spanish and Portuguese alisio/alísio. The image is of steady ocean breezes and easy sailing, giving the name a light, airy feel. In English-speaking use the accents are often dropped, yielding Alize.
Use spread in the late 20th century: in France, Alizée peaked in the 1990s–2000s (helped by the singer Alizée), while in the United States Alize surged in the late 1990s after the Alizé liqueur was popularized in hip‑hop. Variants include Alizé, Alizée, Alizee, and Alyze. In English baby-name style it can also be read as a creative spin on Alice or Eliza. Related but distinct are Aliza (Hebrew, “joyful”) and Alizeh (Persian/Urdu). The name is chiefly feminine but occasionally unisex.
