About Parisa

Funny how one letter can turn a name from ordinary to special. Parisa is so much more distinctive than either Marisa or Paris, with its sparkly meaning. It ultimately comes from the Persian word parī, used to describe a fairy, sprite, or similar.

It may also be considered a feminine form of Paris, as in the figure from Greek mythology, or an elaboration of Paris, as in the French city.

Pronounced pah-REE-sah.

As of October 2026, Parisa ranked #4845 in US births in 2025 SSA, peaked at #2919 in 1991.
