Angelisa Origin and Meaning
The name Angelisa is a girl's name.
Angelisa blends 'Angel' with the feminine suffix '-isa,' creating a name that evokes celestial qualities with a gentle, feminine tone. The name draws from 'Angela,' which derives from the Greek 'angelos' meaning 'messenger.' This elegant variation emerged in the late 20th century as parents sought more distinctive alternatives to the classic Angela or Angelina. Angelisa carries connotations of heavenly beauty and grace while maintaining familiar roots. Though never reaching widespread popularity, the name appeals to parents drawn to its melodic quality and spiritual associations. Angelisa's three-syllable rhythm gives it a flowing, romantic quality that balances uniqueness with accessibility.
