Elladio

Elladio or Eladio is an Italian given name, also known in its feminine variants of Elladia or Eladia. It also appears in Latin as Helladius,[1][2] in Polish as Heladiusz or Eladiusz and in Spanish as Eladio.[2] These all derive the name from the medieval Greek Ἑλλάδιος Helladios,[2] an ethonymic name meaning 'one from Hellas' (i.e. from Greece; MASC).[3][4] This is similar to the name "Greca" (see names of Greece and names of the Greeks).
