With stunning hazel eyes and lovely brown locks, baby Elara will be a true beauty. A name found in Greek mythology, Elara is typically given to girls, stemming from the term alara, which means “hazelnut” or “spear shaft.” Elara was said to be a mortal princess and lover of Zeus, who birthed the giant Tityos beneath the Earth’s surface. Interestingly, her legend inspired the naming of the eighth moon of the planet Jupiter, as it is Zeus’ Roman equivalent. Whether you choose this name because of its fantastical or astrological ties, you will be nutty about your little majesty when they arrive.
