STUNNING! I can’t decide if I prefer Elara or Lara, both so rich in history and meaning! I love names from Greek mythology.

Usages: Greek Mythology, Astronomy
Meaning: Possibly derived from Greek ἄλαρα (alara) meaning "butt of spear-shaft", or the related word ἀλαρία (alaria) "tree which furnished shafts for spears". In Greek mythology Elara was one of Zeus's mortal lovers and by him the mother of the giant Tityos. A moon of Jupiter bears this name.
