OK, this is a bit clumsy in translation , but how about 'Eldasen'? I think '-sen' means children? Or, young elves could be called something poetic - doesn't 'vanimar' mean 'beautiful ones'? Going along these lines then 'Ertithin' would be a good choice.

I still like elvings though, it suggests young eels...an elf could say 'well, back in my elvinghood it was all trees and fields around here'. Perhaps.
