Italian variation of Alexis
"defending warrior"Alessia Origin and Meaning
The name Alessia is girl's name of Italian origin meaning "defending warrior".
Young Canadian pop singer Alessia Cara has given this spicy-sounding name a new lease on life, propelling it into the Top 1000 in 2016. (It was one of the year's fastest-rising girls' names.) The main risk is that it feels so close to Alexa, Alicia, Alexis and Alyssa-- all becoming overused -- that it could be mistaken for one of those more familiar names.
