History & Origin

Elaura is a modern blend rather than an old name. It joins the El-/Elle- opening now attached to so many girls' names with Laura, a Latin name from laurus ('laurel'). The laurel crowned victorious generals and celebrated poets in Rome, and Laura itself was made famous by Petrarch's fourteenth-century sonnets. The Elaura blend is recent and its exact route is uncertain, which we note (said 'eh-LOR-ah').

It appears only in very small numbers in the U.S. Rare, soft, and blend-built.

Did you know? Laura comes from Latin laurus, the laurel - the tree whose leaves crowned Roman victors and poets, and the reason we still speak of resting on one's laurels.
