"οὐλαί" meaning in Ancient Greek

See οὐλαί in All languages combined, or Wiktionary

Proper name

IPA: /uː.lǎi̯/, /uˈlɛ/, /uˈle/, /uː.lǎi̯/ (note: 5ᵗʰ BCE Attic), /uˈlɛ/ (note: 1ˢᵗ CE Egyptian), /uˈlɛ/ (note: 4ᵗʰ CE Koine), /uˈle/ (note: 10ᵗʰ CE Byzantine), /uˈle/ (note: 15ᵗʰ CE Constantinopolitan)
Etymology: The comparison with ἔλυμος (élumos, “millet”) and ὄλυρα (ólura, “spelt”) is hypothetical. In view of the gloss ὄλπα (ólpa), which Furnée connects with ὄλβος (ólbos, “happiness, bliss”) under an original meaning "nourishment, corn, grain", it is probably Pre-Greek.
