<p>Vanesa is a feminine name of Greek origin, a variation of Vanessa with the simplified spelling using a single 's.' The name derives from 'Phanessa,' an ancient Greek title for the god Dionysus, though its modern usage began when writer Jonathan Swift invented 'Vanessa' as a nickname by combining syllables from Esther Vanhomrigh's name. This single-s spelling is particularly common in Spanish-speaking countries and Latin America. Vanesa has a graceful, flowing quality with its three syllables and soft ending. The name conveys femininity and elegance while maintaining a contemporary feel. Though less common than the double-s spelling in English-speaking countries, Vanesa offers a streamlined, international variant that's still readily recognizable. Parents might choose this spelling for its simplicity and subtle multicultural connection, particularly for families with Hispanic heritage.</p>
