Thayse is Greek in Origin.
Thayse is a modern Brazilian Portuguese feminine name, a creative spelling of Thaís/Taís that uses the fashionable h and y of late-20th-century Brazil. The root is Greek Θαΐς (Thais), transmitted through Latin, borne by a famed Athenian courtesan linked to Alexander the Great and, later, by Saint Thaïs of Egypt, whose repentance kept the name in Christian memory. Usage in Lusophone countries rose in the 1980s-2000s, when variant spellings proliferated and Thayse emerged.
Variants and related forms include Thaís, Taís, Tais, Thais, Taise and Tayse in Portuguese; French Thaïs; Russian Taisia/Taisiya; and Italian Taide; literature also preserves Thaisa. The meaning is debated: some trace it to a Greek term for bandage or ribbon, interpreted as adornment, while popular glosses render it beloved or simply associate it with charm and allure.
