About the name Elísio
Elísio belongs to the Portuguese tradition. Its roots are documented, even though its precise meaning is not recorded in the standard references — an honest gap we prefer to a confident guess.
In the United States, Elísio first appears in Social Security records in 2001. It climbed to its best-ever rank of #5843 in 2021, and in 2024 10 babies received the name — 90 in total since 1880. Those are the official counts, not estimates.
