Meaning & origin
Annalisa combines two classic names, Anna and Lisa, into a melodic and distinctive compound name. First recorded in the U.S. in 1953, it saw a steady rise in popularity, peaking in 2000 at rank 2,514. Since 2001, its usage has fallen, reflecting broader trends away from compound names. In its peak decade of the 2000s, it was most popular in Illinois, California, and Texas. As of 2025, Annalisa is given to roughly 1 in every 22,961 newborn girls, making it a relatively uncommon choice. The name carries a graceful meaning derived from its Hebrew roots and feels both modern and familiar.
Annalisa is a modern compound name formed from Anna and Lisa. Anna derives from the Hebrew Hannah, meaning "grace" or "favor," while Lisa is a short form of Elizabeth, from the Hebrew Elisheva, meaning "God is my oath." The name emerged in the mid-20th century and has been especially favored in Italian and English-speaking communities.
