Andressa is Portuguese in Origin.
Andressa is a Brazilian Portuguese feminine name derived from André, the Portuguese form of the Greek Andreas (from aner/andros, “man”). It thus carries the traditional meaning “strong, courageous; manly” transferred to feminine use. The spelling with double s reflects Portuguese orthography to preserve the unvoiced s sound between vowels.
Used mainly in Brazil, Andressa came to prominence in the late 20th century alongside Andrea/Andreia and the vogue for -ssa endings (e.g., Vanessa, Larissa). It remains uncommon in Portugal. Related variants and cognates include Andreia and Andréa (Portuguese), Andrea (Spanish and Italian; masculine in Italy), Andresa and Andreza in Brazil, and Andreea in Romanian. Common nicknames are Dessa and Dê. The name suits parents seeking a modern Brazilian twist on a venerable Greek-rooted classic, balancing familiarity with a distinctive sound.
