Ok My name is Ellarie and the closest I have heard is Ellery which is a guys name. Mine is a famales name and I have never been able to find the orgin. I did look on this site and I found Eleri which is Welsh.Would my name be the same just spelled different and if so what is its meaning? Any tips?
I also thought my name to be of Irish or Scottish orgin.

Ellarie -- or Ellaire -- is a French form of the Latin name Hilaria. Follow the blue hyperlinks for meaning.

Thanks Nanaea its possible. But alot of people mispronounce my name. Everyone says it Ellaire the first time but Ellaire rhyms with Claire almost. My name Ellarie rhyms with celery.Not ony that but because two letters are switched its easy to get mixed up at first glance
