Carlyssah is English in Origin.

Carlyssah is a modern English feminine given name, an embellished form of Carlyssa/Carlissa. Carly descends from the Germanic Karl ("free man," now interpreted as "free person"), while the -issa/-issah ending echoes classical feminine suffixes and the influence of popular names Alyssa and Carissa (the latter tied to Greek charis "grace"). As a blended coinage, the name can be read to combine ideas of freedom and grace, with a contemporary, lilting rhythm.

Usage is rare but recognizable in late-20th and early-21st-century naming, particularly in North America, and it seldom appears on national popularity charts. Parents favor it as a distinctive twist on Carly or Carissa, following trends for double-s cores and a final -ah. Variants and related forms include Carlyssa, Karlyssa, Carlissa, Carissa, Karissa, Alyssa, Clarissa, Larissa, Carla, Carly, Carlie, and Karlee.
