Ellyson Origin and Meaning

The name Ellyson is a girl's name.

Ellyson is a contemporary feminine name that likely developed as a variant of Allison/Alison or as a feminine form of Ellis. The spelling with 'Elly' at the beginning connects it visually to names like Elly, Elle, and Ella, giving it familiar elements despite its relative rarity. Traditionally, Allison derives from the medieval French diminutive of Alice (meaning 'noble'), while Ellis comes from the Welsh 'Elisedd' meaning 'benevolent.' Ellyson remains uncommon in usage statistics, appealing to parents seeking a modern-sounding name with traditional elements. The 'son' ending, historically found in patronymic surnames, gives the name a contemporary unisex quality that fits current naming trends, though it's primarily used for girls.
