Meaning & History
Apparently a later variant of DELICE. This occurred in the 1970s. In the United States #Delisa#, #Delesha#, #Delisiah#, #Delisha#, etc., are found. #Delys# has occurred in Canada. Names beginning with #De# are especially fashionable in modern times among black American parents, and forms such as Delisa may simply be LISA with the favoured prefix.
