Larisa

Very beautiful name. Clear and crisp.

Gorgeous and ages well.

I think Larisa is a beautiful name. I love this spelling. It ages well and rolls off the tongue smoother than silk.

I prefer this to Larissa!

I like this name much more than Larissa!

It's a really nice and beautiful name that can age well on all women. I love Larisa!

I like even Larissa and Lara. It's so beautiful and elegant. It's such a lovely meaning. ❤❤.

It's really nice.

The "dark l" of Russian combined with the sharp "ee" makes this really appealing to me- "lah-RI-sa"
It sounds strong and feminine.

I really like this name, as long as it's not spelled "LaRisa". Why would you spell it that way anyway?

Oh what a beautiful name! Lara, Larissa, Larisa, it's all wonderful! Another child of mine will be named this. Lara, Lara, you fantastically named person, how delightful you are!

A good name, nice history and not all that girly, just keep it spelled right. :)

This name will always make me think of Larissa "Lara" Fyodrovna Antipova in Doctor Zhivago by Boris Pasternak. Lovely name!

I don't like -isa/-issa names in general, and like Karissa, Clarissa, Marissa, they are way to over the top girly.

LaRisa makes me think of Americans trying to pick a classy, French name and failing miserably. I'd expect her sisters to be Chardonnay and Heaven Leigh. So please people, keep it Larisa.

I guess the impression one has of a name is strongly affected by the person you know who has that name. I only know one Larisa, and she is wonderful, so I think the name sounds great!

I associate the name with the Russian word "krysa" (rat). Sounds great; krysa-Larisa!

I like Larisa, mostly because it's not as widely used as Melissa and Marisa, which are rather tired now.

I especially like pronouncing it LURE-ee-seh.

Make it funky and spell it LaRisa - I dislike the name.
