Elenora is a variant of Eleonora, which likely stems from the Provençal name Aliénor. While its exact etymology is debated, it is most commonly associated with the Greek word 'helene' meaning light or torch. It has a long history of use among European nobility and offers a more rhythmic alternative to the popular Eleanor.
