Elisa

Elisa is a short form of Elisabetta and its equivalents across European languages, ultimately deriving from the Hebrew name Elisheba, meaning something along the lines of my God is an oath or my God is abundance. The name spread widely through Christian Europe owing to the veneration of Saint Elizabeth of Hungary and the biblical figure of Elizabeth, mother of John the Baptist. It is used across Italian, Spanish, Portuguese, German, Finnish, and English-speaking traditions, and the Icelandic form Elísa carries the same origin. Related names include Elisabeth, Elizabeth, Elise, Eliza, and Lisa.
