Eulah

Eulah Origin and Meaning

The name Eulah is a girl's name.

Eulah is a feminine name representing a variant spelling of Eula, which derives from Greek origins meaning "sweet-speaking" or "fair of speech." The name gained modest popularity in the southern United States during the late 19th and early 20th centuries, particularly in rural communities. Eulah reached its peak usage around the 1890s-1910s but declined significantly after the 1930s. The added 'h' gives the name a softer, more elaborate feeling compared to the simpler Eula. Today, Eulah has a distinctly vintage quality, evoking images of front porch swings and handwritten letters. It remains very rare in contemporary usage, making it a distinctive choice with Southern historical connections.
