Ellis

Ellis is a gender-neutral name of Welsh, Greek, and Hebrew origins. It means “kind," and benevolent”—two great traits any parent would be happy to hear describing their child. Ellis may also come from the Greek name Elias and Hebrew name Eliyahu, meaning "Jehovah is God." This can make it a great choice to introduce your faith to baby. While the name dates back to the Middle Ages in Wales, it also has plenty of historical significance for the U.S. Ellis Island was the entrance point for 12 million immigrants coming to the US from 1892 to 1954. The name Ellis, therefore, is a beautiful reminder of how cultural integration makes the world a better place.
