Elidi is Greek in Origin.
Elidi is a rare feminine name linked to Greek onomastics, commonly interpreted as a clipped form of Heliodora or Elidora, from helios 'sun' + doron 'gift,' hence “gift of the sun.” The streamlined spelling likely reflects modern taste for lilting, vowel-forward names and may also be influenced by the Spanish/Portuguese forms Elidia/Elidio, which likewise trace back to Heliodoros/Heliodora via Latinized Heliodorus.
Documented use is sparse before the late 20th century, with the name gaining modest traction in English-speaking countries and among bilingual families seeking an uncommon, luminous meaning. Variants and cognates include Elida, Elidia, Elidora, Heliodora (fem.) and Elidio, Heliodoro (masc.). Short forms range from Eli and Lidi to Lida. While sometimes confused with Élodie, that French name derives from Alodia and is etymologically distinct.
