A Korean name for Eloise
The closest Korean sound match for Eloise is 이로 (I-Ro) — composed from syllables Koreans actually use in given names — different from simply spelling Eloise in hangul (that transliteration is 엘로이즈, covered below). Each option below pairs Korean syllables with hanja, the Sino-Korean characters that give a name its meaning.
How to write Eloise in Korean
In hangul, Eloise is written 엘로이즈 (el-lo-i-jeu) — four syllables: 엘 (el) · 로 (lo) · 이 (i) · 즈 (jeu).
That spells the sound of Eloise in Korean letters — a transliteration, not a name. A Korean given name is composed from syllables Koreans actually use in names, anchored to hanja that carry meaning. The closest one for Eloise is 이로, below.
엘로이즈 has four syllables, while 이로 has two. They share 로 and 이; compared with the transliteration, the Korean name match drops 엘 and 즈.

What 이로 feels like
Eloise is written directly as 엘로이즈 (el-lo-i-jeu), but its Korean-name candidate 이로 has a current, contemporary feel. The syllable data also gives it a soft, feminine lean in today's usage. The two syllables carry different sound elements. 이 (i) supplies the earth note of steadiness, sincerity, and trust; 로 (ro) supplies the fire note of warmth, energy, and brightness.
Is 이로 a name Koreans actually use?
Eloise is written directly as 엘로이즈 (el-lo-i-jeu); 이로 is the composed name match, and it is uncommon as a full Korean name. Even so, 이 (i) and 로 (ro) are active in today's given names, which makes the combination sound plausible and current rather than foreign. In fact, the syllable 이 also appears in I-seo (이서), one of the most-registered girls' names of recent years.
