Aliisa

Aliisa is the Finnish form of Alice, ultimately derived from the Old French name Aalis, itself a short form of Adalheidis, a Germanic name composed of the elements adal, meaning noble, and heid, meaning kind or type. The name spread widely across Europe during the Middle Ages and gained enduring literary fame through Lewis Carroll's Alice's Adventures in Wonderland. Related forms include Alisa, Alicia, Alísa, and the Swedish and Norwegian Alise.
