De Lissa

De Lissa is a surname of uncertain origin. It is relatively rare.

Possible origins include:

• French: It may be a variant of the French surname "de Lisle," a toponymic surname derived from a place name meaning "the island" (French "isle"). The prefix "de" indicates origin from that place. Over time, the spelling could have evolved to "De Lissa."

• Other European Origins: It is also possible the name has origins in other European languages, though these are less well documented. It is conceivable that it is a corruption of another surname entirely, or a variant created through migration and transcription errors.

Due to its rarity, there is limited genealogical information readily available regarding the De Lissa surname. Genealogical research is often required to determine the specific origins of a particular family bearing the name.
