The name Elísa is a short form of the Hebrew-derived name Elísabet, itself from the Hebrew Elisheba, meaning something like my God is an oath or my God is abundance. It has been widely used in Icelandic and other Nordic traditions as an independent given name, as well as in Spanish and Portuguese-speaking regions. Related forms include Elisa, Elise, Elisabeth, and Eliza, all of which share the same ancient Semitic root.
