Lyssa

Lyssa is a feminine name that will remind your little one that they can still be respectful and considerate even when expressing big emotions. A shortened form of Alyssa, Lyssa stems from Alicia, the Latinized version of the German title Alice. Meaning "nobleness," Alice shares its grounded yet confident air with Lyssa. In Greek, Lyssa represents feelings that may not immediately be welcome, but can be necessary to process events, right wrongs, and ultimately move forward. It translates to "rage," "fury," "anger," or "madness," four sentiments that your kiddo won't experience often, but when they do, they'll know how to voice them in a way that doesn't unfairly impact those around them. While the Greek mythological goddess, Lyssa, was associated with rage and madness at its most uncontrolled, your Lyssa will use their "big feelings" to create positive change for themselves and others.
