Helayne Origin and Meaning

The name Helayne is a girl's name.

Helayne is a feminine name that appears to be a variant spelling of Elaine or Helen. The traditional Elaine derives from Greek roots meaning 'bright, shining light' or 'torch,' and has connections to Arthurian legend as the mother of Sir Galahad. This variant spelling with the initial 'H' and distinctive 'ay' construction gives the classic name a more modern, unique appearance while maintaining its elegant sound. While uncommon, Helayne has appeared sporadically in records since the mid-20th century. The name carries the same sophisticated, timeless quality of its more traditional counterparts while offering parents a way to honor family members named Helen or Elaine with a more distinctive form.
