Etymology
Leah is derived from the Hebrew name "Le'ah", which was probably derived from the Hebrew word "le'ah", meaning "weary". Alternatively, it might be related to Akkadian "littu", meaning "cow". In the Old Testament, Leah is the first wife of Jacob and the mother of seven of his children.

Elizabeth is derived from "Elisabet", the Greek form of the Hebrew name "Elisheva", meaning "my God is an oath", derived from the roots "'el", referring to the Hebrew God and "shava'" meaning "oath". The Hebrew form appears in the Old Testament where Elisheba is the wife of Aaron, while the Greek form appears in the New Testament where Elizabeth is the mother of John the Baptist.

Elwood is of Anglo-Saxon origin, and can derive from a locational name, or from an Olde English pre-7th Century personal name. As a locational surname, it derives from the place called Ellwood in Gloucestershire. The place name means "the elder wood", derived from the Olde English "ellern", meaning "elder tree", with "wudu", meaning "wood". Elwood may also be derived from the Olde English personal name "Aelfweald", which is composed of the elements "aelf", meaning "elf", and "weald", meaning "rule", and is recorded in the Domesday Book of 1086 in its Latinized form as "Aluuoldus" and "Alfuuold".
