Lys

Lys is a feminine name with Swiss and French roots, thanks to France bordering western Switzerland and French being one of the country’s four official languages. It acts as a short, sweet version of Elizabeth, meaning “God is my oath.” If you prefer to give baby a more earthy name, Lys can also come from the French word for “lily,” giving your little one plenty of room to grow into their leaves and petals. Many Swiss people have carried the name Lys with pride, including late singer and 1956 Eurovision winner Lys Assia. Whether you want to share your faith with baby or inspire their future on the stage, the name Lys is sure to help them blossom.
