Elisha, a girl in in 'The Nightmare Academy', was a spy and one of the heroines of the books. She, along with her twin brother Elijah, got themselves sent to the Knight-Moore Academy where their parents later lost them along the way.-- echo_of_the_past 2/20/2006

Elisha was the successor of Elijha in the Old Testament. Before Elijah was taken into heaven by a chariot of fire, he asked Elisha what he wanted, and Elisha asked for a double portion of Elijah's annointing. Elijah then said, if he saw him being taken into heaven, that the double portion would be bestowed upon him.-- avalah 6/23/2006

Eli Manning's first name. Eli is just a nickname.-- Anonymous User 1/22/2007
When I first saw this name printed out I thought it was a girl and was surprised to see it for a boy. It does look rather feminine and for those who aren't biblical are more inclined to pronounce it a-Lee-sha not e-Lie-sha.-- Anonymous User 5/2/2007

Elisha is really name for a boy!-- Maggie_Simpson 9/11/2007
I like this name. A lot of people are saying that girls have this name, but they don't pronounce it ee-LIE-sha, they pronounce it ah-LEE-sha.-- jasmineenimsaj 2/12/2008
Pronounced "e-LEE-sha".-- MaggieSimpson 5/20/2008
Whether you pronounce the name as ''ee-LIE-sha'' or ''e-LI-sha'', it has got to be the most feminine-sounding masculine name I have ever come across. I'm sorry, but it actually sounds like a feminine ghetto name, regardless of which pronunciation you pick, so I don't know who would dare to name their son this in America. Somewhere else, maybe, if it sounds masculine at all there. This didn't sound masculine to me when I was 11 years old, didn't speak English very well, and heard the track I May Be Single by a female singer named Elisha LaVerne on MTV on a few occasions (gosh, the crap I remember from 1996!). I don't think this name sounds masculine anywhere in Europe.-- slight night shiver 5/22/2008

I do not like this name. It's too manly for a girl, and too girly for a boy.-- Dawson 12/10/2010
I love this name! But it is absolutely for a boy. I HATE when people use it for a girl.-- harry_sent_me 3/14/2011
