Eleanora Origin and Meaning

The name Eleanora is a girl's name of Spanish, Italian origin.

Eleanor is back, Nora is back, and, as predicted, Eleanora is back too, as of 2023.

Having left the charts in the 1930s, this elaboration of Eleanor has returned and blends the elements of its two more popular sisters into one elegant, grand, and sophisticated sounding choice.

Given to nearly 300 babies in 2023, the addition of that final vowel gives Eleanor a little flip at the end, making it more Latinate and poetic, while still sounding perfectly familiar and grounded.

If you love the idea of this but don't want her to become just another Nora or another Ellie, you could consider Leonor or Lenore too.
