==Etymology==
The name ''Elveden'' seems to come from Old English
*''ælfa-dene'' 'elves' valley': the name appears, translated into Latin, as ''vallis nympharum'' 'valley of nymphs' in the mid-twelfth-century ''Miracula sancte Wihtburge''.〔Alaric Hall, ''Elves in Anglo-Saxon England: Matters of Belief, Health, Gender and Identity'', Anglo-Saxon Studies, 8 (Woodbridge: Boydell, 2007), pp. 64-65.〕 During the 17th and 18th Centuries, the village was often referred to as ''Elden''〔St Andrew and St Patrick parish registers - Suffolk Records Office, Bury St. Edmunds〕 and the village name is often incorrectly spelt today as 'Elvedon'.
Elveden and the nearby village of Weeting were used as the code-names for investigations into the ''News of the World'' phone hacking allegations during July 2011.〔(Statement from Commissioner of the Metropolitan Police )〕 Operation Elveden is the name of the investigation into allegations of inappropriate payments having been made to the police in exchange for information.
