Eleri is a feminine name of Welsh origin thought to be a variant of Hilary. Deriving from the Greek hilaros, Eleri may translate to "cheerful” or "merry." This title may also refer to the Welsh river, the Afon Leri. Perhaps Eleri is the shortened form of Eleriin, an Estonian moniker with links to several other names, such as Elizabeth, Helen, Ellen, and Katherine. With possible meanings including “my God is an oath,” “torch,” “moon,” “shining light,” and “each of the two,” little Eleri will have plenty of inspiration to find their life path. Eleri's singsong sound cannot be denied, painting the picture of a spirited character happy to go with the flow.
