Noble kind
Alisen is a modern spelling variant of Alison, which originated as a French diminutive of Alice. It ultimately derives from the Germanic name Adalheidis, meaning noble type or of noble birth. While the 'on' and 'en' endings have been used historically, this specific spelling is a contemporary American variation.
