Eloise

Pronounced EL-oh-eez

girl

Meaning: "Famous warrior; Healthy and wide"
Origin: French/Germanic

Eloise combines 'hale' (healthy) and 'wid' (wide), suggesting wholeness and breadth. The name connects to the biblical concept of abundant life — Jesus came that we might have life 'more abundantly,' not narrow and restricted but full, wide, and overflowing.

Spiritual meaning

Eloise speaks of the abundant life Christ offers — wide, full, healthy, and overflowing with purpose.

Questions about biblical name meanings

How do I find the biblical meaning of a name?

Type the name into the search box above. The tool returns the Hebrew, Greek, Aramaic, or Latin root behind the name, its literal meaning, and the King James Version passages where it appears.

Does every name have a biblical meaning?

No. Many modern Christian names never appear in Scripture, and some popular 'biblical meanings' circulating online are inaccurate. Where a name is thematic rather than scriptural, we say so plainly instead of inventing a verse for it.

Which Bible translation do the verses come from?

The King James Version. It is public domain in the United States, so the text can be quoted and shared freely.
