Meaning & History
Ele is first and foremost the modern Basque feminine form of ELIAS.
However, this name also coincides with a Basque word ele "word; story; conversation" and finally it is also the name of a (masculine) god known from inscriptions found in Aquitaine between the 1st and 3rd centuries.Even though said deity was masculine, the name is understood as a strictly feminine name in this day and age.
