Girl name · 3 babies recorded · 1974–2025
Allysha: 3 babies born in Scotland since 1974, given to girls, peaking at 3 births in 1996.
Allysha is a modern phonetic spelling of Alicia, which itself evolved from the Old French Adelais, ultimately tracing back to the Germanic name Adalheidis, meaning “noble type” or “of noble birth.” This name gained popularity in Scotland and beyond during the late 20th century as parents embraced creative variations of classic names. Notable bearers include Canadian soccer player Allysha Chapman, who won an Olympic bronze medal in 2021, and Canadian pole vaulter Allysha Newman. While no major places are named directly after an Allysha, the name shares its noble root with Adelaide, the capital of South Australia, and with the countless saints and queens named Alice.
