Meaning & origin

Its peak year was 2025, when it ranked 5,208th with an incidence of 1 in 94,893 births. The name follows a stable trajectory, neither surging nor declining in recent decades. It is most frequently given in New York, reflecting its use within Jewish communities.

Eluzer is a variant of Eleazar, a Hebrew name derived from 'El' (God) and 'azar' (help), meaning 'God has helped.' In the Old Testament, Eleazar was the third son of Aaron and a high priest of Israel. The name has been used among Jewish communities for centuries and occasionally appears in English-speaking countries.
