Elishay is a modern and touching Hebrew name that combines two significant components: "Eli" - my God, and "Shay" - gift or present. The name expresses the profound perception that a child is a precious divine gift, a blessing bestowed by the Creator. It is a name that carries deep gratitude, joy, and appreciation for the miracle of life and the special gift that is the birth of a child.
