==Elu and Helu in Kannada == 
 It may be interesting to know that Elu means "to speak" in Kannada. Helu can mean "Say". So may be Elu Simhala may mean spoken Simhala. Because words in any language may have many meanings and thus interpreting one language based on meaning in other may not be so good but if it for good purpose it may be desirable.  

 Other meanings (in Kannada):- 

 Elu - speak, getup, say, seven, stand, advance, etc. 

 Thanks.
