Comments for ALYS:
Name of the main character in Vivian Vande Velde's novel, Dragon's Bait.-- websurfer 5/2/2006
This is also the Welsh form of Alice.-- Anonymous User 5/16/2007
The spelling doesn't look very intelligent.-- slight night shiver 5/15/2008
I agree, it gives the impression that the parents didn't pay too much attention in grade school English classes.-- Anonymous User 7/19/2008
Alys Pearsall Smith (1867-1951), from Philadelphia, was the first wife of renowned British philosopher Bertrand Russell (Earl Russell) (1872-1970).-- Jonquil 9/16/2008
I think this is an adorable version of Alice - more balanced and without the "lice" element that makes me think of woodlice!-- Jonquil 9/16/2008
This is my middle name and I love it. I think it is more creative than Alice and is really unique. Teachers have always, always spelled my name Alice. It gets to be a drag!-- thecookiemonster 2/3/2009
I agree with a previous comment - this is the modern Welsh form of Alice, deriving from Alis. My Welsh cousin bears this name.-- Anonymous User 10/24/2010
I much prefer this spelling to the more commonplace 'Alice.' I think it looks prettier for some reason. Lovely name spelt either way!-- insertusernamehere 11/25/2010
This name isn't as modern or trendy as the spelling might suggest. Famous bearers include Alys of France, Countess of the Vexin (1160 – c. 1220), Canadian singer Alys Robi (1923-2011), and British TV presenter Alys Fowler (born 1978).-- ophelia_song 5/18/2012
