It is worth recalling that when Liza talked about her career, she also said, "I didn't even choose the name Liza. It was chosen for me."

"Isa sa mga nabanggit niya dun diba na hindi nga siya yung pumili ng pangalan na Liza Soberano. Kwento mo naman nay, ichika mo samin kung san ba galing yung Liza Soberano," Loi asked.

Eventually, Ogie explained that Malou Santos came up with Liza and that her screen name had the actress's approval.

The talent manager also mentioned that Liza, at the beginning of her career, was using 'Hope' Soberano.

"Dati kasi po Hope Soberano talaga ang gamit namin. Pero kasi nga, parang one syllable lang siya so sabi ni Tita Malou, 'Ano bang pangalan mo?' 'Hope Elizabeth Soberano' ayun, 'Ah eh si Liza. Pwede ba Liza?' Liza Soberano, bongga, sosyal, glamorosa yung mga ganyan. Bonggang pangalan. Agree lahat, even si Liza ay nag-agree sa Liza. Syempre pag Hope ka lang, Hope Soberano," he explained.
