History & Origin

Analissa is a respelling of Annalisa, a name that binds together two enduring favorites: Anna, from the Hebrew for 'grace,' and Lisa, the everyday short form of Elizabeth. The compound feels flowing and romantic, and its meaning is simply the sum of its well-loved parts. It reached American parents mostly in the late twentieth century.

Analissa was never common, given to only about twenty girls a year at its peak around 2000, and it stayed a quiet choice on either side of that. A girl named Analissa then is in her mid-twenties today.

Did you know? The Anna-plus-Lisa pattern behind Analissa is centuries old in Italy and Germany as Annalisa, but the -issa respelling is a distinctly late-century American touch.
