Alphonza

Alphonza is a feminized adaptation of the Germanic name Alphonso, itself derived from elements meaning 'noble' and 'ready, willing.' While the masculine form enjoyed prominence across Iberian kingdoms and later in Europe, Alphonza emerged as a distinctive, albeit rare, feminine variant, echoing this noble heritage with a softer cadence, appearing in records in the early 20th century.
