History & Origin

Aalyssa respells Alyssa, a name drawn from the alyssum flower and associated with Alice. The doubled initial A reflects the twenty-first-century taste for elaborated spellings.

It stayed rare, given to only about fifteen girls a year around its early-two-thousands peak, one of many Alyssa variants of the moment. A girl named Aalyssa then is in her twenties now.

Did you know? The alyssum behind Alyssa was once thought to cure rage - its Greek name means 'without madness' - a curious root for so gentle-sounding a name.
