Meaning: famous warrior

The German girl’s name Eloise means “famous warrior.” This name belongs to one of the most famous children in literary history. Countless kids have read and been charmed by the character Eloise, a mischievous girl who lived at New York’s fabled Plaza Hotel. The name is rooted in the German name Lousie and is the modern form of the French Heloise. After a 40-year absence from the baby-name charts, Eloise made a comeback, due to the Netflix show Bridgerton, gaining popularity with parents who love an old-fashioned name.
