Aattisen is a Finnish surname. The name is believed to be derived from the given name Aatto, which is a Finnish form of the name Adolf.

The surname Aattisen is primarily found in Finland, particularly in the northern and eastern parts of the country. Like many Finnish surnames, it likely originated as a patronymic, indicating lineage. The prevalence of the name suggests a historical connection to individuals named Aatto or their descendants.

While the exact origin and distribution of the surname are not extensively documented in widely accessible English-language sources, its structure and common Finnish naming conventions provide insight into its etymology. The name does not appear to have significant international recognition outside of Finnish diaspora communities. Further genealogical research within Finnish archives would be necessary for a more detailed history of specific families bearing the Aattisen surname.
