Meaning & origin
Lissandro is a modern name that first entered U.S. birth records in 2002, a relatively recent addition to the naming landscape. It blends the familiar element Lis (from Elisabeth) with the fashionable Italianate suffix -andro, echoing names like Alessandro and Leandro. The name reached its peak rank in 2010 and has been on a steady upward trajectory since 2006, particularly gaining traction in California. While still uncommon (ranked 6,446th in 2025, with roughly 1 in 131,390 boys receiving the name), its rising popularity reflects broader trends favoring novel combinations of familiar components.
