Amarissa

Faithful parents celebrating their new arrival may love the feminine Hebrew name, Amarissa. Since it comes from the Hebrew Amariah, meaning “promised by God” and “God has said,” what better way to always remind baby of how precious they are? Amarissa is a zestier form of Amaris, which is also a lovely choice if you’d like to drop the ending -a. Amarissa is also quite similar to the Latin name Marissa, which is a contraction of Maria Lisa. Maria has a variety of meanings, including “bitter,” “rebellious,” “wished-for child,” and “beloved,” while Lisa means “God is an oath.” Amarissa is a unique choice that will inspire baby to express their individuality. Steeped in faith and timeless elegance, baby Amarissa will surely rock this poetic appellation.
