History & Origin

Emmalise blends two of the steadiest names in Europe. Emma comes from a Germanic ermen, 'whole; universal', and reached England with Emma of Normandy; Lise and Elise shorten Elizabeth, from Hebrew Elisheva, 'my God is an oath'. The blend is contemporary American, which we note (said 'EM-uh-leez').

It appears only rarely in the U.S. Rare, blended, and graceful.

Did you know? Emmalise pairs the Germanic Emma, 'whole; universal', with the Elizabeth family through Lise or Elise. It is a modern combination rather than an old name, which we note honestly (said 'EM-uh-leez').
