Alisa as a name
Alisa is a female given name of Hebrew origin, which means “great happiness” or “joyful.” It is a variant of the name Alice, which is derived from the Old French name Aalis, a short form of the Germanic name Adalheidis, composed of the elements “adal,” meaning “noble,” and “heid,” meaning “kind” or “type.” Alisa is a fairly popular name in many countries, including the United States, Russia, and Israel.
