Elodie Origin and Meaning

The name Elodie is a girl's name of French origin meaning "foreign riches".

Elodie derives from Elodia, the Spanish variation of Alodia, a gothic German name associated with Saint Alodia. Saint Alodia was a child martyr in 9th century Spain, along with her sister Nunilo. In France, Elodie is spelled Élodie, with an accent over the E.

The lyrical and melodious Elodie, a budding Nameberry favorite, could be a more sophisticated tribute to an Aunt Melody.

Élodie is a mono-named Italian singer and model as well as a major character in the Emile Zola novel The Earth. Princess Elodie is the protagonist of the video game Long Live The Queen and there was a character on The Hills named Elodie.

Back on the US Top 1000 in 2019 for the first time in over a century, Elodie is currently enjoying popularity in her native France and in England and Wales.
