Just found this name on a site that means God has answered/ray of light. I actually really like it and thought could nickname Elle/Ellie?

Would love all your thoughts as so helpful x

Please not another Ellie. I'm knee deep in them.

Love it, or another spelling variant - Ehlana.

I would suggest Lana as a nn rather than Ellie, which is dire.

It's a pretty name. I wouldn't want it shortened to Elle or Ellie though. Far too many of them.

Love Eliana but would get the rage if it was my name and someone shortened it.

I know an Eliane. Nickname Ellie. Lovely old fashioned French name.

Love it

pretty but boring.

It's OK but does sound like a variation on the million Elle's, Ellie's and Ella's.

I known an Ellia which I think is really pretty

My little cousin is called Eliana (Lia for short).
Her parents are French/Brit and Italian. They met in Spain.
It’s a beautiful name that works well with lots of different languages.
The Eliana in my daughter’s class has Russian/German parents and is Eli for short.
Lovely name, definitely on the list!
