Elu First Name Meaning

Elu is a female name of Native American - Zuni origin, meaning "Fair, Beautiful." It is derived from the ancient Middle Indo-Aryan language, Eḷa, used in Sri Lanka, ancestral to Sinhalese and Dhivehi languages. The name Elu is associated with the Prakrit of Ceylon and is advocated by the Hela Havula, a Sri Lankan literary organization. Eḷu exhibits distinct linguistic features, such as preference for short vowels, loss of aspiration, and reduction of compound consonants. It shares a close relationship with other Prakrits, particularly Pali, with many word-stems being identical. The name Elu symbolizes beauty and fairness, reflecting its rich linguistic and cultural heritage from ancient Sri Lanka.
