Bright, shining light
Elane is a variant of Elaine, which itself is the Old French form of Helen. It carries the same etymological roots meaning torch or light, often associated with radiance and beauty. While less common than its counterparts, it retains a vintage, mid-century charm.
Fewer than 5 girls were named Elane in 2025.
