Louisa
Girl's given name
Louisa is a feminine given name, the Latinate form of Louise.
It peaked in popularity during the 19th century and carries a literary, old-fashioned quality—associated with authors like Louisa May Alcott.
The name remains in use but sounds more formal than the French-derived Louise or the nickname Lou.
