Alisan is a feminine name with Turkish origins, where it can be spelled Alişan and is actually more commonly used for boys. The name may derive from elements meaning "flame" and "reputation" or "glory." In Western usage, it's often viewed as a variant of Alison or Allison, which ultimately comes from the Germanic name Adelaide, meaning "noble type."
