Eleene is of Greek origin, derived from the ancient Greek word 'eleos', meaning 'mercy'. It is a unique and elegant choice for a given name. While it may not be as commonly used as some other names of Greek origin, such as Olivia or Sophia, Eleene brings its own charm and distinctiveness to the table. The name's pronunciation and spelling are straightforward, making it easy to remember and pronounce. It rolls off the tongue with a gentle rhythm, adding to its appeal.
Eleene was quite popular among parents in the early to mid-20th century, with a notable peak in its popularity around 1916 and again in 1932. However, it seems that by the late 1920s and early 1930s, its appeal started to wane somewhat, as evidenced by the steady decrease in births named Eleene during those years. Overall, throughout this period, there were a total of 49 babies born with this unique name.
