What is the meaning of the name Eleora ?

The baby name Eleora is a Female name , 4 syllables long and is pronounced ˌɛliˈɔːrə,el-ee-OR-uh.

Eleora is Hebrew in Origin.

Eleora is a feminine given name of Hebrew origin. Built from El (“God”) and or/ora (“light”), with a feminine ending, it expresses “God is my light” or “the Lord is my light.” While not recorded as a biblical personal name, its components are classical and echo in related forms such as Elihu (“my God is he”) and Liora (“my light”). Many view Eleora as a spelling variant of Eliora; it should not be confused with Eleanor, which derives from Provençal/Greek sources.

Documented use is rare but growing in modern Hebrew and English-speaking contexts, favored for its luminous, reassuring meaning and rhythm. Variants and close relatives include Eliora/Eliorah, Leora, Liora, and the masculine Elior and Lior; Elora sometimes serves as an anglicized or stylistic choice, though it has separate etymologies. Common nicknames are Ellie, Ora, and Lora. Eleora fits contemporary trends toward theophoric Hebrew revivals and remains distinctive without being unfamiliar.
