Elyott is English in Origin.
Elyott is a modern respelling of Eliot/Elliot, ultimately derived from the medieval French name Elyot, a diminutive of Elie (Elias/Elijah). Through Latin Elias and Greek Elias from Hebrew Eliyahu, the name carries the meaning "Yahweh is my God." It entered Middle English via Norman influence, appearing in records both as a forename and as a surname associated with the Scottish Borders Elliot/Eliot clan.
The -y- spelling echoes early Tudor usage, most notably the scholar Sir Thomas Elyot, while today it lends a distinctive, contemporary twist. Variants include Eliot, Elliot, Elliott, Eliott, Elyot, and the French feminine form Eliette. Used as a given name since the 19th century and now broadly unisex, Elyott fits the trend of polished, surname-style choices. Pronunciation aligns with Elliot: EL-ee-uht or EL-yut, though regional accents vary.
