Liesl is a feminine given name of German origin, derived from the diminutive forms of Elizabeth and Elisabeth. The name means "my God is an oath" or "my God is abundance," reflecting its Hebrew and German roots. Initially, Liesl was associated with traditional Germanic heritage and Alpine imagery, as seen in the character Liesl von Trapp from "The Sound of Music." However, the name has evolved over time, gaining popularity through literary works like "The Book Thief," where Liesel Meminger is the main character. This evolution has made Liesl a unique and culturally significant name, symbolizing resilience and promise.
