Its name indicates it is a combination of the sign "Ezen" (𒂡), which often relates to a festival or celebration, superimposed or multiplied with the sign "A" (𒀀), meaning water or lineage, and then further combined with two instances of the sign "Lal" (𒇲), which can signify sweetness or a measuring unit.
