Ela

Ela is a feminine given name with multiple independent origins. In Turkish it describes a hazel or light brown eye color and is used as a name praising the beauty of a woman's eyes. It also functions as a short form of Hebrew-origin names such as Elah, meaning oak or terebinth tree, and appears as a Polish and Czech diminutive of Elżbieta and Ela-prefixed names derived from the Hebrew Elisheba, meaning my God is an oath. Related forms include Elah, Ella, and Elana.
