Ella-Mai

Double barrel names can be made up of any two names, and their meanings can be taken as a combination of the meanings of the two root names. Mai is a variation of May. Ella-Mai is a popular combination for girls in Britain. Ella is a pet form of the name Eleanor, which itself is the French form of Helen. Helen is of Greek origin and is said to mean ‘Bright’. Mai can be a pet form of Mabel, or can be associated with the month. Ella-Mai would be a lovely name for a little girl born in the month of May, where a bit of individuality is preferred in a name.
