About the name Eloize
Eloize and Heloize are spellings with Z that recall Eloísa, Heloísa and the English Eloise. Wiktionary records Heloísa as a borrowing from the French Héloïse, and Behind the Name gives Eloise as a form of the Old French Héloïse, probably from the Germanic name Helewidis, formed from heil ('healthy, whole') and wit ('wide'). The Dicionário de Nomes em Uso no Brasil (Dictionary of Names in Use in Brazil) lists Eloiza and Heloiza among the spelling variants of Heloisa, but the origin of the spellings with Z themselves is uncertain. In the 2022 Census, IBGE recorded 2,177 people named Eloize, with a median age of 10; most bearers of the two spellings were born from 2000 onward, and the name is almost always female.
