I voted for Alyssa b/c that's what I like best. However, I see these names as having different pronunciations, so it's not just a spelling issue.
I would say Alissa and Alyssa as uh-LISS-uh.
Alysa and Alisa would be pronounced uh-LEE-suh.
And Elisa would be pronounced eh-LEE-suh (almost exactly the same as Alisa, but with more of the eh sound at the beginning).
Alyssa and Alisa are my two favorite spellings, depending on which pronunciation you're going for.

Saw another twist on this the other day (on Wheel of Fortune, I think?). The woman's name was spelled Ilyssa. I'm not suggesting it, but thought it was interesting.
