Lysianassa Origin and Meaning

The name Lysianassa is a girl's name meaning "queen who liberates and frees; the redeeming mistress; queen of deliverance".

The name of one of the Nereids (sea nymphs), an Egyptian princess, and a daughter of King Priam of Troy in Greek mythology, Lysianassa is a bold, lyrical feeling name of Greek origin. Derived from lysis meaning "releasing, freeing" and anassa meaning "queen", it has a regal and uplifting air — though some English speaking parents may pause over the fourth syllable.
