A name that speaks of enlightenment, faith, and heavenly faraway lands, Ilyse is a feminine title with Greek and Hebrew roots. Flaunting two origins, Ilyse is considered a form of Elyse, a nickname for the Greek and Hebrew Elisabeth. Meaning “God is my oath,” Ilyse lays the foundation for a faith-filled life. Ilyse may also be inspired by the Greek and Latin Elysia, from Elysium, meaning “blessed isles.” In Greek mythology, Elysium is described as a paradise or state of permanent happiness, where the most honorable go when they pass away. Carrying blissful vibrations reminiscent of Elysium, Ilyse is an ideal choice for the treasured child who makes Earth that much sweeter.
