Ellamae is a feminine name combining the German name Ella and the English Mae. Whimsical and adorable, this mystical moniker means “beautiful fairy” or “elfin,” making Ellamae a more subtle choice for parents drawn to fairytale names such as Aurora and Ariel. Ellamae is also related to the similarly spelled Ellamay, offering two captivating options for naming your little fairy. Derived from the Old High German Alia, meaning “all” and alles, being “other,” Ellamae’s ethereal aura may be explained through its German etymological roots, as well as its Latin connection to the month of May and the Roman earth goddess Maia.
