Artemysya is Greek in Origin.

Artemysya is a rare, modern spelling of Artemisia, from Greek Artemisia (Ἀρτεμισία), the feminine name linked to the goddess Artemis. Because Artemis’s own name is of uncertain origin, the given name is commonly interpreted as “dedicated to Artemis,” sometimes associated with Greek artemes, “safe, unharmed.” It also echoes the botanical genus Artemisia (mugwort, wormwood), traditionally connected to the goddess or to Queen Artemisia II.

The name has deep classical and artistic resonance: Artemisia I of Caria, a 5th‑century BCE naval commander; Artemisia II, builder of the Mausoleum at Halicarnassus; and Baroque painter Artemisia Gentileschi. Usage has appeared across the Mediterranean, with periodic revivals in literature and art. Variants include Artemisia (standard), Artemisa (Spanish/Portuguese), Artemizija (South Slavic), and Artemiziya/Artemiziia (East Slavic transliterations); creative forms include Artemysia and Artemysya. Nicknames and shortenings: Sia, Temi, Misia/Misa, and Artie.
