Lisenka is Polish, Slovak in Origin.
Lisenka is a modern feminine name found chiefly in the Netherlands and Belgium. It functions as an affectionate elaboration of Lise/Lisa or Elise - short forms of Elisabeth (Hebrew Elisheva) - with the meaning "my God is an oath," often rendered "pledged to God." The -enka ending echoes Slavic diminutive patterns, lending a gentle, endearing tone while retaining the biblical root.
Attested since the late 20th century, Lisenka remains uncommon yet recognizable in Dutch-speaking use. Related forms include Lise, Lisen (Swedish), Lisa, Lies/Liese, Lieske or Liesje, Elise, Elisa, Liza, and the broader Elisabeth/Elizabeth. A rarer parallel, Lisinka, shows the same Germanic base with a Slavic-style diminutive ending.
