My salvation
Elaisha is a rare variant of the Hebrew name Elisha, which appears in the Old Testament as a prophet and successor to Elijah. While Elisha is traditionally masculine, the 'a' ending has led to its occasional use for girls, sometimes with phonetic spelling adjustments like Elaisha. It carries a strong spiritual significance rooted in the elements 'El' (God) and 'yasha' (to save).
