The name suggests "banner of the high place" or "she who carries the standard of elevated purpose" — a herald or standard-bearer of a noble or sacred cause, perpetually in motion.·Welsh-inspired origin·Female·AY-lah-vane

Aelavane Aelavane combines the Welsh height-tradition with the mobile "-vane" ending — a character named Aelavane would be a noble who cannot stay still, a standard-bearer in the truest sense whose purpose is always to be moving at the front of the advance. An elvish herald who carries news between kingdoms, a paladin always on the move to where the divine will points, or a young noble who refuses to inherit her family's seat when there is a quest requiring completion.
