Elizondo is a Basque place-name and surname meaning '(house) beside the church'. As a place-name it is attested in the whole Basque region, but especially in Navarre and French Basque Country (cf Eliçaondo in Pamplona, 1350). It shows a number of variants stemming from the original form, especially in America, such as Elissondo, Lizondo, Elissonde, less likely but also possible Elison and Elyson, irrespective of the genuine, pre-American English and Welsh forms.
