Origin：
It’s hard to remember this kanji by its origin. However, I will think of a way to help you remember it.
姉＝女＋市。
女 means “woman”，市 means “market”.
When you were small，it’s your elder sister that buy something for you in the market, because your parents are busy. So 姉 stands for “elder sister”.
Now you can remember it easier.
