What is the meaning of the name Elodine ?

Elodine is French in Origin.

Elodine is a rare elaboration of Élodie, the French form of medieval Elodia/Alodia, ultimately from a Visigothic/Germanic name built on ala “other, foreign” and od/ōd “wealth, prosperity.” The sense is typically rendered as “foreign riches” or “wealth from elsewhere.” Adopting the familiar French -ine ending, Elodine retains Élodie’s liquid sound while adding a decorative flourish.

Saint Alodia, a 9th‑century martyr in northern Spain, sustained the name’s medieval currency; Élodie was later revived in 19th‑century France and spread to the wider Francophone world. Elodine appears in late‑20th‑century records as a modern variant, used sporadically in France, Quebec, the UK, and the United States. Related forms include Élodie/Elodie, Elodia, Alodia, and the diminutives Elo, Lodie, Ellie, and Dina. Less common spellings such as Élodine or Elodina also occur. All share the same Germanic root meaning of “prosperity from afar.”
