My God is my King
Elikai is a rare name likely derived from the Hebrew elements 'Eli', meaning 'my God', and 'Kai', which can be a variant of 'Melech' meaning 'king'. It is often chosen as a modern, rhythmic alternative to more traditional biblical names like Eli or Malachi. While not appearing directly in the Bible, its components are deeply rooted in ancient Semitic languages.
