Meaning: My God is an oath; My God is abundance

Here’s a baby name you won’t want to let go! Though now a personification of empowering self-acceptance, Elsa first made its mark as a feminine variation of the Hebrew name Elizabeth. Elsa means "my God is an oath" or “my God is abundance” and will bolster baby’s connection to their faith. You’ll find many Elsas across Scandinavia, Germany, Italy, Portugal, and Spain, to name a few—proof of its world-renowned beauty. Plus, thanks to Disney’s Frozen, Elsa now exhibits the merits of embracing the self. A testament to devotion in all its forms, Elsa is a wonderful way of reminding baby that staying true to themselves is the surest way to receive all of life's blessings.
