Ilsae Origin and Meaning

The name Ilsae is a girl's name.

Ilsae is an uncommon feminine name that appears to be a variant of Ilse, which originated as a German and Dutch short form of Elisabeth. The added 'a' creates a unique spelling while maintaining the original's elegant simplicity. Elisabeth itself derives from the Hebrew name Elisheba, meaning 'God is my oath.' Ilsae has a delicate, somewhat ethereal quality with its soft sounds and uncommon letter combination. While rare in most naming traditions, it carries echoes of Northern European heritage. The name's brevity and melodic nature give it a contemporary feel despite its traditional roots. For parents seeking something distinctive yet accessible, Ilsae offers an unusual option with historical connections.
