User Comments about the name Leisa
Comment left May 04, 2010: "My name is Leisa too, I never knew there were others who'se name is spelled just like mine. Some people often pronounce me name wrong too." (Report as inappropriate)
Comment left Mar 04, 2010: "My name is leisa too! Wow! I only met one Leisa in my life who spelled and pronouced her name like mine and thought we were the only Leisa's. It's so cool how many Leisa's there are. People sometimes pronounce my name wrong like Liesa or Leesha, and I always have to correct them, Its Leisa with the E sound." (Report as inappropriate)
Comment left Feb 25, 2009: "It's my name too. My sister wanted to call me Lisa Maree, My mother called me Leisa Maree, When i was old enough to ask her why she spelled it that way, she said that she wanted to spell it as it sounded. She pronounces it Lee-za, my sister Lisa. It is a great source of conflict for them. I wish my name wasn't so much a fashion statement of the late sixties and was more classic."

Comment left Nov 18, 2008: "A true Leisa who loves her name. I too believe in GOD and am thankful that it has meaning. I named my daughter Elisa. I pronounce it "lisa" but agree I am too unique to have a boring name like Lisa.
Much love to all the Lisas" (Report as inappropriate)
Comment left Oct 14, 2008: "i was born on valentine's day 1994 i never knew there so many person's name are spelt like mine. I know 1 person with spelling" (Report as inappropriate)
Comment left May 11, 2008: "I still can't convince some of my inlaws my name is NOT Leisha, and I get phone calls and mail for Layeesha and Lakeisha all the time. My whole childhood I was called Liza or Leisel. I don't love the sound of the name anyway; but could my parents at least not have made me constantly correct people as well?
I like having a unique name, and the spelling is visually pretty, but I spend so much time having to "explain" my name or make corrections that it becomes a professional nuisance!" (Report as inappropriate)
Comment left Feb 29, 2008: "I'm very glad I'm Leisa and not Lisa- that's just too bland for me! People sometimes don't know how to say it, and I always have to spell it- in fact I've learned to spell it instead of saying it first on the phone, because otherwise people just automatically start to spell it the other way & then have to go back and correct it. I don't think of myself as a Lisa at all. Now just because I like it doesn't mean I think you should spell your kid's name this way- it's great because it's unusual- don't mess that up for me!"

Comment left Nov 16, 2007: "My mother didn't know how to spell "Lisa" so she used the name Leila, and changed the "l" to and "s." I thought I was the only one who spelled Leisa that way, then quite a while back,with the help of the internet, I found that there are many of us out there! I was born in 1961.
For some reason many try to pronounce it La-ee-sha. Weird." (Report as inappropriate)
Comment left Sep 12, 2007: "Hi i'm Leisa. also born 1963 in England. the first Leisa that i met had the same date and month of birth and the same maiden name. we had both been nurses too. The only difference she was born 50 years earlier than me in 1915. She reckoned she was the original Leisa.
I love my name. i love the slight pause and momentary panic when someone has to announce me and are not quite sure how it sounds. sounds silly but not every name gets that!!
Hello to all other Leisa's. I hope you all have wonderful lives but do listen next time someone reads your name from a list for the first time and see what i mean." (Report as inappropriate)
Comment left Jun 27, 2006: "My mom made it up and you pronounce it Lay-ee-sa...people say it wrong all the time and i think it's also an alternative spelling for lisa and that's why. i've never met anyone with my name either." (Report as inappropriate)
Comment left Jan 07, 2006: "It's my name. I wasn't entirely sure until now that it was even a "real" name! I love it though. Everyone always mis-spells and mis-pronounces it though. One of my teachers called me "Leisha" all the time and after 3 years, I finally discovered she actually thought there was an "h" in my name! I love it though, much more fun than "Lisa"" (Report as inappropriate)
Comment left Dec 14, 2005: "I'm curious as to why it so suddenly appeared. I'm a Leisa and know a few others about my age (born 1960s) with the same spelling. People often ask me how it's pronounced and frequently mis-spell it (the worst is when it's converted to Leslie!)." (Report as inappropriate)
Comment left Aug 18, 2005: "This is my name. I have never met anyone with my name and I am shocked to see how many people have this name" (Report as inappropriate)
