Elizeusz
One of the rarest names on the register: only about 75 men in Poland carry it, and none were given it last year. Hebrew at root, it means "god is salvation".
Elizeusz Pronunciation
Elizeusz is pronounced e-lee-ZE-oosh (/ɛliˈzɛuʂ/).
What Elizeusz means
Where Elizeusz comes from and what it has meant to the people who carry it.
Elizeusz reaches back to Hebrew, to the older name Elisha, in Hebrew Eliša. The parts read as God and salvation, and together they say that God is salvation.
The most documented bearer is the prophet Elisha, who follows Elijah in the biblical Books of Kings. He inherits his master's mantle and becomes his successor. He heals a poisoned spring and multiplies a widow's oil, working among ordinary people. Polish tradition kept his name in the fuller, older shape Elizeusz.
It is a rare choice on a Polish register. A teacher reading the class list at the start of term might slow at it, then say it once and move on.
The name stays close to its source. No diminutive softens it, no variant crowds it, and it stands on the page as Elizeusz, three syllables that mean God is salvation.
When Elizeusz celebrates name day
Elizeusz appears 1 time in the Polish name day calendar, never as a main name. The first of these dates is 14 June.
Rarer dates. Only the most complete calendars add this name on these days. Most skip them, so hardly anyone celebrates then.
