Lysah is English in Origin.
Lysah is a modern respelling of Lysa/Lisa, diminutives of Elizabeth, from Hebrew Elisheva meaning “God is my oath.” The terminal -h echoes biblical names like Sarah and Hannah and lends a softer, vintage finish. Usage is rare but attested in English-speaking countries from the late 20th century onward, often chosen to individualize the familiar Lisa or Liza while preserving their classic roots.
Related forms include Lysa, Lyssa, Lysha, Lyza, Lisa, Liza, Elysa, Elisa, Eliza, Alisa, and the broader Elizabeth/Elisabeth family (Isabel, Isabelle, Elisabet). Some also connect Lysah to French lys “lily,” adding a floral, purity symbol to its associations. Meanings cluster around “God is my oath” with optional lily imagery. Spelling variants yield pronunciations like LEE-suh or LIE-suh, but usage typically aligns with Lisa.
