[Facts] Elisa as a Turkish name
Does anyone know if the name Elisa has Turkish or Arabic or maybe Persian roots as well?It is in the Turkish top 100 and rising and as far as I know Turkish parents are very traditional when naming children (no other non Turkish/Arabic/Persian name ever made the top 100).I know that Ada and Lina are used but Lina also has Arabic roots and Ada is Turkish for "island".But I have no clue about Elisa. Might this be the first foreign name in the Turkish top 100 or is there something I am missing?And if it is indeed a foreign name how did it get popular? Is there a TV show/actress etc. with the name?
