allisha is in Origin.

allisha is a modern English feminine given name, a double‑l variant of Alisha. Alisha developed as a phonetic spelling of Alicia, itself the Latinized form of Alice, from Old French Alis/Aalis, ultimately from the Germanic Adalheidis (Adelheid). The core meaning is “noble,” “of noble kind,” or “noble nature.” Common pronunciations: ah-LEE-sha, uh-LEE-sha; also uh-LISH-uh.

Usage spans medieval Alicia in France, England, and Iberia, while Alisha rose in 20th‑century anglophone use, peaking in the U.S. during the 1980s–90s. allisha is rarer, chosen for a distinctive look with a familiar sound, and occurs in North America, the Caribbean, and South Asia. Related forms and cognates include Alisha, Alysha, Allysha, Aleesha, Alesha, Alicia, Alice, and Adelaide; pet forms include Ali, Allie, and Lish/Lisha. Note: Though sometimes linked in South Asian usage to Arabic Ali or given folk meanings like “protected by God,” mainstream etymology remains Germanic via Alice.
