Ivelisse or Yvelisse would be a modern creation in Latin
America, based on the French name Yveline and changing its ending to -is or -isse, which is a popular suffix for newly created names in Latin
America. Yveline is a feminine form of
Yves.
Yves is a French name that goes back to an ancient Germanic word that meant "yew tree". Male names that have been used in Scandinavia that are derived from the same ancient Germanic word include
Ivar and Iver, but I don't think it's accurate to say that Ivelisse itself has a "Scandinavian origin". :)
