Detailed Slovak etymology analysis
Lia je variant biblického mena Lea, hebrejsky Lé’a (לֵאָה); podobu Lia používa aj latinská biblická tradícia. Hebrejské východisko je doložené, pôvodný význam však nie je jednoznačne vyriešený. Výklady „unavená“ a „divá krava“ preto nemožno uvádzať ako istý preklad mena.
