I know you probably like it, but in my personal opinion: Yucky. It's too cliche, like "Destiny" or "Nevaeh".

Charissima is a rather clever combination of the Italian endearment 'carissima' and the term 'charisma' and both are lovely words.
As a girl's name, however, I'm afraid it would be a burden on the child. What if the child is shy, by nature, and feels lacking in charisma? This name would invite teasing, I'm afraid. Plus it is super difficult to spell correctly.
You could always use it as her middle name, but I would bet you a million bucks that people will pronounce the 'h' so the meaning is changed to 'a darling charwoman' instead of what you intended. I prefer the shorter Carissa. If other kids give her a nickname like Cari, that would be cute and different, too.
I would make her other name, whether first or middle, something with an ordinary spelling. That's the way my name is and I used the more common name while in the lower grades to avoid teasing and confusion about spelling. Most children just want to fit in with the other kids and only want to be unique when they're older. When I went to college, I started going by the more unusual name and love it.
By having one unique name and one more traditional name, you will give your child a choice of which one is the best one to use.
Good luck with your darling little one!

If it was for a middle name and not spelt so diferent. But if thats the name that you like you should not worry what people say. Spelling it that way will only make it hard for your daughter at school, she will be forever corecting people on her name and spelling. You should keep it simple eg. Charisma

Not good at all. It's a very trendy stupid name. 10 years from now that name will be so not good. That's like people named Sunshine in the 70's.

The thought of naming a child that makes me want to vomit. The name is bad enough, but then you've misspelled it - which is worse.

It's too scrambled it seems, I don't like the spelling.
Maybe if one S was dropped.
I like Charisma though.
