The Lord is my God
Illias is a variant of Elias, which is the Greek form of the Hebrew name Elijah. It carries the same religious significance, referencing the biblical prophet who was taken to heaven in a chariot of fire. While less common than Elias or the French Élie, this spelling offers a distinct, international flair.
