Erella is Hebrew in Origin.
Erella is a modern Hebrew feminine name (Hebrew: אראלה) derived from the biblical term ’ar’el/erel and the related angelic order Erelim. In the Hebrew Bible and later Jewish tradition, these words denote “mighty/valiant ones” and are associated with divine messengers, so Erella is commonly interpreted as “angel,” “heroine of God,” or “valiant woman.” The -el ending means “God,” underscoring the name’s theophoric character and spiritual resonance.
As a given name, Erella came into wider use in 20th‑century Israel and remains most familiar in Hebrew‑speaking communities, occasionally borne by figures in academia and public life. Variant forms include Erela (the more prevalent Israeli spelling), Arela/Arella, and the masculine Erel; related but distinct are Ariel/Ariella. Diminutives and nicknames include Rela, Relli, and Ella. Outside Israel the name is rare, offering a distinctive sound with deep Semitic roots and an uplifting, courageous meaning.
Erella is far from common. We have only 46 recorded uses of it on record, from 10 countries.
