Elissa is associated with the meaning “Noble, devoted, or wandering queen” — a beautiful sentiment to see brought to life in your child’s room.
Elissa is rooted in two possible sources. The first is Phoenician, where it was a royal name meaning "she who wanders" or "the wanderer." The second ties it to Hebrew origins, connecting it to Elisheba, meaning "my God is an oath" or "my God is abundance." Both roots give the name serious historical weight.
