Elyott Origin and Meaning
The name Elyott is a girl's name.
Elyott is a feminine name that represents a creative spelling variation of Elliott or Eliot. Originally derived from the Hebrew name Elijah meaning 'Jehovah is God' or from the medieval English form of the name Elias, Elyott has evolved to become a distinctive choice for girls. This spelling with 'y' and double 't' gives the name a contemporary flair while maintaining its historical connections. Though traditionally used for boys, Elyott has joined the growing trend of names crossing gender boundaries, particularly with this unique spelling. The name carries a literary sophistication, perhaps evoking references to poet T.S. Eliot or author George Eliot (Mary Ann Evans), while offering the cute nickname options of Elly or Ellie.
