Ellawee is an uncommon and unique given name of probable American origin, though its exact etymology is uncertain. It is believed to have been coined during the late 19th or early 20th century, possibly as a blend of two popular names of the time: Ella and Wee (a diminutive form of William).

Therefore, it can be considered an invented name, created for its appealing sound rather than any specific cultural significance. Despite its rarity, Ellawee has been occasionally used as a given name for girls in the United States and elsewhere, adding to the diverse landscape of modern naming practices.
