Greisy

Meaning of Greisy

Greisy (GRAY-see) pours out like a sunset fiesta on the tongue. It comes from the Latin word gratia—meaning grace—and flows through English Grace and Spanish Gracia. This bright word drapes every niña in an invisible shawl of encanto. It dances through the sala with the lightness of a colibrí’s wing. It also stands grounded like a sturdy palma under a tropical sky. It is still rare in the United States. It has hovered in the 900s of the popularity charts. But Greisy is quietly twirling its way into corazones, especially in lively Latino familias. It whispers of kindness, generosity, and that spark of alegría that lights up abuelos—and maybe kicks off a mini telenovela at the dinner table. Calling out “Greisy!” feels like summoning a splash of color, warmth, and music. It tells her story before she even says her first palabra.
