As others have mentioned, I associate it with the Boeing B-29 Superfortress bomber that dropped the first atomic bomb and with Enola Holmes. I did watch Enola Holmes starring Millie Bobby Brown and found the character annoying. Part of it may have been due to not being the intended audience, but the fact that she was not a good detective, had to stumble into the reveal, and then gloated about how she solved the mystery was eyeroll worthy. It is one of those stories where every other character has to drop down a level in order for the protagonist to shine. Flatest incarnation of Sherlock Holmes ever. The issue with her terrorist mother was not handled well either.

Maybe the books are excellent? If the books about Enola Holmes are superb, then having the name Enola might be like having the name Katniss, Scout, Frodo, Holden, or some other distinctive name that is shared with a book character.
