Eloysia Origin and Meaning

The name Eloysia is a girl's name.

Eloysia is a feminine name with Latin and Greek origins, being a variant of Eloisa or Heloise. The root name Heloise derives from 'hale' meaning 'healthy' or 'whole' combined with 'wid' meaning 'wide.' This elegant and uncommon name carries historical significance through its connection to the medieval scholar Héloïse d'Argenteuil, known for her intellect and famous love story with philosopher Peter Abelard. The additional 'y' gives Eloysia a distinctive, sophisticated flair while maintaining its classical roots. Though rare in contemporary use, the name offers a refined choice for parents seeking something unique with historical depth, intellectual associations, and a graceful sound.
