My oath
Yesli is a modern Spanish-language diminutive or variant of Elizabeth, which is derived from the Hebrew name Elisheva. It carries the same spiritual weight as its root name, signifying a promise or oath to God. While rare in the United States, it is used within Hispanic communities as a fresh, melodic alternative to more traditional forms.
