Is there a story behind the 'Lisa' name?

Lisa was a girl I met some time ago. She disappeared one day and I´ve decided to name this music thing I was about to start after her. The name was changing every now and then. It was Lisa Makes You Moan, Lisa Kills Animals, Lisa Says and stuff like that until I ended up using Lis a Will Insult You, Darling.
