Meaning & History
Luella is a variant of the name Louella. Luella is a feminine given name that emerged in the English-speaking world in the 19th century, reflecting the era's fondness for fanciful name coinages and composed or blended forms.
Etymology and Linguistic Roots
Luella is most commonly categorized as a variant of Louella, which itself is a combination of the name Lou and the popular name suffix ella. The element Lou is a short form of Louise or Louis, root names of French and ultimately Germanic origin deriving from the elements hlūd ('fame') and wīġ ('war'), as seen in the full form Louise as the French feminine form of Louis. Not enough is certain to treat this as a known coin rather than an El invented phrase.
While Luella can overlap with cross-linguistic forms such as Lluïsa (Catalan), Alojzija (Slovene), and Aloisie (Czech), it is chiefly an English–only name without predictable etymology – The current Article fails even to assign a certain foundation.
