ElleAnna Suo - What Does Her Name Mean?

She must have an "E" name because she is the fifth grandchild. The other four are boys - she is the only girl. The boys' names each start with A, B, C, and D.

"Elle" are the last four letters of both my name and my sister's name. It means "God is my Light". My boys intend to call her Elle most of the time - pronounced Ellee.

"ElleAnna" means "The Lord has Answered" - which is true as there have been many prayers about this sweet little girl. It is pronounced Ellee-Awnuh.

"Anna" is part of Hannah and Johanna which were the names of three very special people in my family's history.

"Suo" was the name given to her by the orphanage. It was her first name there. It is pronounced Swoh. It means "lock".
