Elisee
Elisee Origin and Meaning
Elisee is a masculine name of French origin, derived from the biblical name Elisha, which means 'God is salvation' or 'God is my oath.' This name has roots in both Christian and Jewish traditions, as Elisha was an important prophet in the Old Testament. The French spelling Elisee adds a touch of elegance to the traditional name. While uncommon in English-speaking countries, it has maintained modest popularity in French-speaking regions, particularly in Quebec, France, and parts of Africa where French influence is strong. The name carries a sense of spiritual significance while offering a distinctive alternative to more common biblical names. Elisee has a melodic quality with its three syllables and soft ending sound.
