Yelitza
Yelitza Origin and Meaning
Yelitza is a zippy, sunny and sparkly sounding name that has been used in Mexico since at least the beginning of the 20th century. It is possibly inspired by Nahuatl or Aztec words, meaning "being" or "essence" or "door to heaven". The name also bears resemblance to Yelizaveta, an Eastern European variant of Elizabeth and to Yelena, a variant of Helen, elaborated with the suffix "-itza".
Yelitza was one of 2023's fastest rising names for girls, with parents potentially taking inspiration from Yelitza Lora, a radio and TV presenter, dancer, model, actress and influencer from the Dominican Republic. Popular on Instagram, Yelitza Lora runs her own wellness company and speaks on neurodivergence, single parenting, and fashion.
Given to 81 girls in 2023, Yelitza is a pretty choice with that on trend letter 'Z'.
