Melissza

Melissza is a Hungarian variant of the name Melissa, derived from the ancient Greek word melissa, meaning bee, which is itself related to meli, meaning honey. The name appears in Greek mythology as that of a nymph who discovered and taught the use of honey. Its use spread widely across European languages, producing forms such as Mélissa in French and Melisa in Spanish and other traditions. The Hungarian spelling with sz reflects the phonological conventions of that language while preserving the name's classical roots.
