    Elysia

    Pronounced eh-LEE-see-ah

    girl
    Not found in the KJV text — No — the name Elysia does not appear in the King James Bible. Christian families use it for its meaning, "Blissful; From the Elysian fields; Paradise", and for the biblical themes that meaning touches, not because anyone in Scripture is called Elysia.
    Meaning
    "Blissful; From the Elysian fields; Paradise"
    Origin
    Greek/Latin

    Elysia knows paradise — and Christ promised paradise to the thief on the cross. 'And Jesus said unto him, Verily I say unto thee, To day shalt thou be with me in paradise.' Elysia enters paradise through Christ's invitation.

    Spiritual meaning

    Elysia enters paradise today — the tree of life given, the overcomer fed, the blissful soul who dines with Christ in God's garden.

    Questions about biblical name meanings

    How do I find the biblical meaning of a name?

    Type the name into the search box above. The tool returns the Hebrew, Greek, Aramaic, or Latin root behind the name, its literal meaning, and the King James Version passages where it appears.

    Does every name have a biblical meaning?

    No. Many modern Christian names never appear in Scripture, and some popular 'biblical meanings' circulating online are inaccurate. Where a name is thematic rather than scriptural, we say so plainly instead of inventing a verse for it.

    Which Bible translation do the verses come from?

    The King James Version. It is public domain in the United States, so the text can be quoted and shared freely.

    How can I tell whether a name is actually in the Bible?

    Each result distinguishes a name that appears in the KJV from a later Christian or thematic name. Related verses explain a theme; they are not presented as proof that a modern name occurs in Scripture.
