Eloah is Hebrew in Origin.
Eloah derives from Biblical Hebrew אֱלוֹהַּ, the singular counterpart to Elohim, and means "God," "deity," or "the Mighty One." It appears most densely in the Book of Job and is tied to the Semitic root ʾ‑l‑h that underlies cognates such as Aramaic Elah, Ugaritic il, Akkadian ilu, and Arabic ilāh (related to Allah through the same root). In liturgical and scholarly contexts Eloah functions as a theological term; as a given name it is a modern adoption, prized for its serene sound and reverent meaning.
Contemporary use remains rare in English-speaking countries but appears in Jewish and Christian circles, in Israel, and notably in Lusophone countries through the variant Eloá. Other forms and relatives include Éloa (French), Elah (Aramaic form), and names built on El‑, like Eli, Elijah, and Eliana. Treated as unisex but more common for girls today, Eloah takes nicknames such as Ella, Ellie, and Loa. Pronunciation: eh-LOH-ah.
