What is the meaning of the name Alysah ?

The baby name Alysah is a Female name , 3 syllables long and is pronounced uh-LEE-sah (ə-LEE-sə),uh-LISS-uh (ə-LIS-ə).

Alysah is English in Origin.

Alysah is a modern English given name, a stylistic variant blending Alysa/Alyssa and Alisha. It draws on two main name families. From Alicia/Alice (Old French Alis, from Germanic Adalheidis), it carries the meaning "noble kind" or "of noble lineage." Through Alyssa it also evokes the sweet alyssum flower; that plant name comes from Greek a- "not" + lyssa "mania," once believed to calm madness, now suggesting gentleness and floral grace rather than a literal meaning.

While Alice and Alicia have medieval roots across Europe, Alyssa rose sharply in English-speaking countries in the late twentieth century, and creative spellings like Alysah gained traction thereafter. Related forms and close variants include Alyssa, Alysa, Alisa, Alisha, Alysha, Alicia, Alice, Elissa, and Elisa. Short forms such as Aly/Allie and Lyss/Lysa are common. Usage of Alysah remains contemporary and relatively rare, offering a familiar sound with a distinctive finish.
