Light, torch, or bright shining one
Ellenie is a variant of the Greek name Helen or the French Hélène. It shares the same etymological root meaning 'torch' or 'coruscating light,' often associated with beauty and brilliance in classical mythology. As a modern variation, it offers a softer, more rhythmic sound than the traditional Ellen.
