Elora is a feminine given name of uncertain origin. It has become better known as the name of a child character in the 1988 fantasy film Willow. It might be a variant of the names Eliora, a Hebrew name meaning “God is my light”, or Elnora, an American combination of the names Ella and Nora. It also has roots in other cultures and, in some instances, might have been inspired by the recreation area at Elora, Ontario that was ultimately named after a site in India.
