Karise is in Origin.
Karise is a modern feminine given name, likely a contemporary variant blending Karis (from Greek Charis ‘grace, favor’) with the stylish -ise ending; also aligned with French-influenced forms like Charise/Charisse and with Carissa/Charissa. In English-speaking usage it emerges in the late 20th century; rare but seen among Christian parents for the theological sense of grace. It also coincides with the Danish place name Karise, which occasionally informs Scandinavian use, and the K-initial reflects Nordic spelling preferences.
Meaning: most commonly interpreted as grace or kindness; via the Carissa pathway it can also carry beloved, dear from Latin carus and associations with charity. Variants and related forms include Karis, Karisse, Carise, Carisse, Charise, Charisse, Karissa, Carissa, and Charissa; short forms may be Kari or Ris. Because Karise is relatively recent, there is no long historical canon of bearers, but it fits the modern, gentle-lyric name trend and offers a distinctive twist on classic grace names.
