"Wherefore thou shalt entrust thy principal town, Llancarfan, with all the clergy and thy people to thy celibate disciple, Elli, in the sight of all, and shalt appoint him a teacher and a ruler to them.’ "
Online translation of the Life of St Cadog. Para 37.

References to Elli as 'him' follow frequently in this version, and also in para 26.
There seems to be another person, a Princess Ellyw, daughter or granddaughter of King Brychan of Brycheiniog, and she may be the reason for your sources' confusion.
