Best Answer - Chosen by Asker: can the last name ehly be japanese or a japanese word????????

Yes, but it's pronounced Eri in Japan (as officially there is no 'l' sound in Japanese) and written in hiragana as えり。

Eri (or Ellie) means 'blessed prize' in Japanese and is actually quite a popular name again at the moment. My friends' just named their daughter Eri.

No, there is no "L" in the Japanese language.
