Meaning: Its source is Alice, an English name meaning "Exalted nature."
Origin: "Alice."
Languages: This girl's name is used in English.
Popularity: The name Allison ranked 44th in popularity for females of all ages in a sample of 2000-2003 Social Security Administration statistics, 228th in popularity for females of all ages in a sample of the 1990 US Census and 43rd in popularity for females of all ages in a sample of the 1994 US Census.
This name was popular earlier in the 20th century, then fell off in usage, but has begun making a comeback in recent years.
Narrative: This originated as a surname, meaning in effect ''Alice's son.''
Generally, family names originated with a male ancestor, as the commonness of patronymics such as Johnson or Anderson attest. However, if a woman headed the household for any reason (such as, her ownership of the family property, the absence of a husband because of death or abandonment, etc.) notable exceptions evolved.
Another example of such a surname is Madison, derived from either Maud or Madeline.
