Monalisa

Meaning of Monalisa

Monalisa (Italian moh-nah-LEE-zah) draws its roots from Renaissance Italy, forever linked to Leonardo da Vinci’s enigmatic masterpiece. It rolls off the tongue like a brushstroke across a blank canvas, imbuing its bearer with an air of mystery and timeless charm. In the US, it hovers around the 900s in popularity—just seven little girls in 2024—yet its uncommon grace ensures it never feels ordinary. Parents who choose Monalisa invite a blend of historic elegance and modern confidence into their child’s life, giving her a name that’s part art, part adventure, and wholly unforgettable—after all, not everyone can be a living portrait, but Monalisa comes close.
