There seem to be lots of names in the family that are hebrew/possibly jewish etc, Enoch, Yenes, Isack, Jackob etc. Will have to message my contact and see ifshe can tell me anymore. Im guessing it;'s male from what you found in google, thanks! Laura

Google came up with: Elionai - modified spelling of a biblical masculine name. Elainia - girl's name of English origin The former seems to be of Hebrew origin - any Jewish connections? Could it be a Jewish surname used as a forename? Jay

This name appears twice on the tree of someone I'm related to by marriage, once as a female and once as a male.... does anyone know which it is or whether it can be used as both? Thanks Laura
