Name Meaning

form of Helen , now also used outside Wales. It is identical with the Welsh vocabulary word elen ‘nymph’, but this is unlikely to be the origin. It is found in Welsh texts from an early period as an equivalent of Helen, for example as the name of the mother of Constantine, finder of the True Cross.
