[Heb-NACO] Romanization: ayin lamed zayin vav zayin

[Jasmin Nof]

Yes, the record with 'Elzuz may indeed be "the 'droid" you're looking 
for.  you may wish to add 246's with alternate romanizations though.  
Since it is referring to Alsace, I'd probably go with 'Alzoz and/or 
'Alzuz.  ymmv.

Best wishes, jasmin
