Ellisen is a modern variant of the name Ellison, which originated as an English patronymic surname meaning 'son of Ellis'. Ellis itself is a medieval English form of the Hebrew name Elijah, referring to the biblical prophet. While traditionally masculine, the 'Elli' prefix and 'en' suffix have led to its contemporary use for girls.
