Basque Names that Start With E

Despite Eneko's very sweet meaning, it packs a lot of historical punch. Eneko Aritza was the first Basque king of Pamplona. It is somewhat related to the more well known Inigo.

A rare name even among Basque speakers (fewer than 20 women in Spain are called Elixane), this beautiful name has drawn some attention via Elixane Lechemia, the French pro-tennis player.

This Basque name is used in a similar way to the Spanish name "Nieves" - that is as a reference to the Virgin Mary. This would make a striking choice for a winter-born baby.
