leatris is in Origin.
Leatris is a modern English feminine name, most likely a streamlined spelling of Leatrice, an early-20th-century American elaboration that blends Lea(h) with Beatrice/Beatrix. The spelling Leatrice was lifted into wider notice by silent-film star Leatrice Joy (1893-1985), and the shorter Leatris appears sporadically afterwards, chiefly in the United States. While never common, it fits with creative given-name patterns of the era and remains a rare choice today.
Meaning is generally taken from the Beatrix element: from Latin beatus "blessed" plus the agentive -trix, yielding "bringer of joy" or "she who blesses." By sound alone, Leatris also echoes Liatris, the prairie "blazing star" flower, adding a faint nature association for some parents. Variants and related forms include Leatrice (more standard), and the broader Beatrice family: Beatrice, Beatrix, Beatriz, Béatrice, and Gaelic Beitris. Nicknames may be Lea, Lee, or Tris.
