"Λάρισα" meaning in Ancient Greek

See Λάρισα in All languages combined, or Wiktionary

Proper name

IPA: /lǎː.riː.sa/, /ˈla.ri.sa/, /ˈla.ri.sa/, /lǎː.riː.sa/ (note: 5ᵗʰ BCE Attic), /ˈla.ri.sa/ (note: 1ˢᵗ CE Egyptian), /ˈla.ri.sa/ (note: 4ᵗʰ CE Koine), /ˈla.ri.sa/ (note: 10ᵗʰ CE Byzantine), /ˈla.ri.sa/ (note: 15ᵗʰ CE Constantinopolitan)
Etymology: There were many Greek cities with this name, the most well-known being the one situated in Thessaly or Pelasgiotis. This lead some to suppose the name was of Pelasgic origin. However, the frequency of the name throughout the Greek world rather argues for a Greek origin. It might be found in the adjective λαρός (larós, “sweet, delicious, pleasing”). The city might have been named for the pleasantness or fertility of its surroundings. Compare the closeby Πιερία (Piería), possibly derivated from *peyH- (“fat”).
