Eloise, of French origin, translates to 'she is famous'. It is derived from the Occitan word 'Alòís', which means 'famous warrior' or 'renowned'. This name was popularized by the 1956 children's book, 'Eloise: Or, The Hating of New York' by Kay Thompson. It has since been used in various works of literature and media, contributing to its recognition.
"The name Eloise was consistently popular between 1919 and 1939, with a peak of 10 births in both 1927 and 1931. The name's popularity was stable over this period, averaging around 6-8 births per year."
