It’s for a girl. I’ve never heard of a boy called Elisha though...off the top of my head I know of 1 female Elisha (Cuthbert) and a Kayley (Cuoco)

Kaylee for a girl! Elisha is all boy. How about Alisha?

I like the name Kayley, but I would spell it Kaylee.

Elisha is a boy’s name. It’s pronounced uh-LIE-shah. I think you’d prefer Alicia, pronounced eh-LEE-shuh. Kaylee (my preferred spelling) is okay but overdone. I’d prefer Kaila which, while similar, is much less common and very pretty.

Just something to remember as well. Elisha. For a girl it’s pronounced "EL-LEE-SHA". For boys it’s pronounced "EL-EYE-SHA".

Elisha is pronounced Eli-Sha not Ah-lee-sha. It’s in the Bible, and is indeed a boys name.

Elisha is pronounced uh-LIE-shuh all the time. Alicia is the name pronounced uh-LEE-shuh.

Alicia is a girls name, Elisha is a boys name, they do sound similar but they are not related

Try Alicia or Eliana
