Need help with a possible variation

Chelsea
Hi all
My husband had picked the name if our baby is a boy (keeping the sex a surprise and we are due in 6 weeks). 
We both really love the name and were pretty much set on it, problem is our friends had a baby boy today and they had the same name picked. 
The name is Elijah. 
My husband is devastated. 
Does anyone have any variations of the name?
I have tried googling but can't find anything. 
Think we may have to choose a new name 😢
