The original meaning of the name **Elia** (Елия) is connected to the name of the high mountain **Elion** (Anaphothripon – "mountain of highest light") and signifies "mighty, strong, excellent", reflecting its association with divine power. In Judaism and Christianity, this name is attributed to the prophet Elijah (Elias), the son of Saraph of Sinhar, who was one of the most significant prophets in ancient Israel. The name became a symbol of strength, faith, and spiritual service.

It was widely used in Orthodox families, particularly in the XVII-XIX centuries, and carries connotations of theological concepts and spiritual values.
