Raissa

Raissa is a feminine name of Yiddish and Greek origin. This floral name is thought to stem from the Yiddish word roiz or royz, meaning “rose.” It is an alternative spelling of Raisa and is a stunning choice for those who wish to reach beyond popular nature names for something a little more unique. Sure to keep baby cool, calm, and collected, Raissa is thought to come from the Greek rhâion, which means “more relaxed” or “easy-going,” making for the perfect choice for placid babies who like to go with the flow.
