Previously, the settlement was known as the Suuk-Su village (Crimean Tatar: Suvuq Suv). Following the forced deporation of the Crimean Tatars in 1944, the Presidium of the Supreme Soviet of the Russian SFSR published a decree on May 18, 1948 renaming the settlement along with many others throughout Crimea from their native Crimean Tatar names to their current variants.

Lisne is located on Crimea's southern shore in the Crimean Mountains at an elevation of 250 m (820 ft). Its population was 581 in the 2001 Ukrainian census. Current population: 610 (2014 Census).
