Telisa is a unique and beautiful given name of American origin, derived from the feminine form of the Latin name Telesphorus. It's composed of two elements: 'teles', meaning 'remote' or 'distant', and 'phaurus', meaning 'bringer'. Thus, Telisa could be interpreted as someone who brings distance or separation. The name has a modern and distinctive sound, making it an attractive choice for parents seeking something uncommon yet pleasant-sounding. It gained some popularity in the United States during the 1970s but remains relatively rare today.
"The name Telisa experienced a peak in popularity during the late 1960s to early 1970s with over 30 births annually from 1966 to 1974, reaching its zenith with 47 births in 1973. However, it quickly declined afterwards, and by the mid-1980s, there were fewer than 20 births per year. Since the late 1990s, Telisa has become quite rare, with less than 10 births annually."
