feminine · English (Rare) origin
Alisya is an English feminine name functioning as a modern spelling variant of Alicia, which itself derives from the Old French Aliz, a contracted form of the Germanic name Adalheidis, composed of the elements adal, meaning noble, and heid, meaning kind or type. The name ultimately belongs to the same family as Alice, Adelaide, and Alicia, all sharing that sense of noble character. Its rarity suggests it arose as a stylized or phonetic respelling rather than through any independent linguistic tradition.
