Ellac (died in 454 AD) was the oldest son of Attila (434–453) and Kreka. After Attila's death in 453 AD, his empire crumbled, and its remains were ruled by his three sons, Ellac, Dengizich and Ernak. He ruled briefly and died at the Battle of Nedao in 454 AD. Ellac was succeeded by his brothers, Dengizich and Ernak.
==Etymology== Several scholars derive Ellac from a word akin to Old Turkic älik / ilik / ilig ("prince, ruler, king), which derives from *el (realm) + lä-g (to rule, the rule). The name thus appears to be a title rather than a personal name.
