Ellari is in Origin.

Ellari is a modern, largely unisex given name in English, with roots and echoes across several traditions. It fits the contemporary -ari/-arie trend and is often read as an elegant blend of Ella and Ari, yielding layered meanings such as “other/elf, light” (from Ella’s various Germanic and Romance roots) plus “lion” in Hebrew or “eagle” in Old Norse from Ari.

It also overlaps with established names: as a creative spelling of Welsh Eleri - linked to the Latin Hilarius - Ellari can carry the sense “cheerful, joyful”; as a cousin of the English surname-given name Ellery, it inherits a long, gender-flexible history; and as a near-form of French Alarie (ultimately from the Germanic Alaric), it can suggest “all-ruler.” Variants include Ellarie, Ellary, Ellery, Eleri, and Alarie; short forms include Ella, Elli, and Ari. Usage is recent but growing in English-speaking countries, prized for its lyrical sound and cross-cultural resonance.
