Meaning & origin
Elloise is a relatively rare name that first appeared in U.S. records in 1912 but remained uncommon for decades. Since 2006, its popularity has been rising, reaching its highest rank of 3,389 in 2025, with approximately 1 in 35,717 girls receiving the name. The name is most frequently given in Michigan. Elloise shares phonetic similarities with the more established Eloise but stands out with its distinctive spelling. Its modern usage suggests a blend of traditional and contemporary naming trends.
Elloise is a modern variant of Eloise, which itself derives from the French name Héloïse, ultimately from the Germanic name Helewidis, composed of elements meaning 'healthy' or 'wide' and 'wide'. The name gained some usage in the early 20th century but has seen a resurgence since the mid-2000s.
