Meaning & Origins
(Italian) From the Late Latin name Elpidius, Greek Elpidios, a derivative of Greek elpis (genitive elpidos) ‘hope’. Among various early saints so named was a 4th-century hermit who spent twenty-five years in a cave in Cappadocia. Relics believed to be his were kept in the Middle Ages at Sant'Elpidio in the marches of Ancona, and the name was most commonly used in that region.
