Alysa Origin and Meaning

The name Alysa is a girl's name.

Alysa is a feminine name that serves as a variation of Alisa, Alice, or Elyssa. With Greek roots connected to the name Alice (meaning 'noble' or 'truth'), this softer spelling offers a modern twist on traditional classics. Gaining modest popularity during the 1980s and 1990s in the United States, Alysa provides an alternative to more common names like Alyssa or Alicia while maintaining familiar pronunciation. The name carries a sweet, gentle quality while still feeling contemporary. Parents often choose Alysa for its balance of familiarity and uniqueness, as it's recognizable without being overly common. The spelling with one 's' distinguishes it from the more frequently used Alyssa.
