The name Elliw is a girl's name of Welsh origin meaning "color".

Rarely used outside of Wales due to its unfamiliar spelling and pronunciation, Elliw likely comes the Welsh word <em>lliw</em> meaning "color", lending the name a bright and sparkly feel. The Welsh double LL sound doesn't exist in English but sits somewhere between thl- and sh-. As such Elliw is pronounced (very roughly) as ETHL-ih-oo or ESH-ih-oo. In a recent year it was given to just three girls in England and Wales.
