Allis is Germanic in Origin.
Allis is a Scandinavian and Middle English spelling variant of Alice, ultimately from Old French Aalis/Alais, a short form of Adelais derived from the Old High German Adalheidis (source of Adelaide). The elements adal “noble” and heid “kind, sort” give the meaning “of noble kind” or “noble-natured.” The name also overlaps with the English surname Allis, which developed from the medieval personal name (Alice/Alys) and occasionally from Ellis; as a given name, though, Allis is predominantly feminine.
The form appears in medieval English records as Alis/Allis, then re-emerged in Scandinavia; in Sweden it gained independent use in the late 19th and early 20th centuries and today reads as a rare, vintage-leaning choice. Variants and related forms include Alice, Alys, Alis, Alyce, Alise, Alix, Aliz, Aalis, and Adelaide; common diminutives are Allie and Ali, with Scandinavian pet form Alli.
