Origin:British
Meaning:Old
Every time little Eldous looks at you with a knowing gaze or impresses you with their intellect, you'll know you chose the right name for them. A masculine title, Eldous is a variant of Aldous and other monikers derived from the Old English element eald. While its definition of "old" may not immediately seem befitting of your brand-new bundle, Eldous calls to mind the other ways the term "old" can resonate. Perhaps it will remind you of your tiny tot's wise, old soul, or your love for them that will last through the ages.
