Alisen

Alisen is a feminine name that appears to be a variant spelling of Alison or Allison, which originated as a medieval French diminutive of Alice, ultimately derived from the Germanic name Adalheidis meaning 'noble type.' This particular spelling with 'e' instead of 'o' gives the name a softer, more distinctive appearance while maintaining the familiar pronunciation. Alisen combines the classic appeal of its more common variations with a touch of uniqueness. The name carries the same pleasant, melodic quality and friendly associations as Alison but stands out in written form. While not as widely used as the standard spellings, Alisen offers parents a way to provide their daughter with a recognizable yet slightly unconventional name that has roots in medieval European naming traditions.

Pronounced AL-uh-sun.

As of October 2026, Alisen ranked #16556 in US births in 2015 SSA, peaked at #6348 in 1987.
