Alishia

Alishia is an English feminine name functioning as a variant spelling of Alicia, which itself derives from the Old High German name Adalheidis, composed of the elements adal, meaning noble, and heid, meaning kind or type. The name passed into medieval Latin and Old French as Aalis and Alice before spreading widely across Europe. Notable bearers of the root name include Alice, the heroine of Lewis Carroll's nineteenth-century stories, which helped cement its enduring popularity in the English-speaking world.
