Milissent Origin and Meaning

The name Milissent is a girl's name.

Milissent is an uncommon spelling variation of Millicent, a feminine name with Germanic origins meaning 'strong in work' or 'strong-willed.' The name comes from elements meaning 'labor' and 'strength.' This particular spelling with one 'l' and two 's's gives the name a slightly different visual appearance while maintaining the traditional pronunciation. Millicent was moderately popular during the medieval period and saw a revival in the Victorian era, though the Milissent variant has always been rare. The name carries connotations of determination and capability. Milissent has an elegant, somewhat aristocratic quality that connects to its medieval roots while offering a subtle twist on the more conventional spelling.
