Hello! This is a really late response, so I don't will it be of any help, but yeah...Just to mention, I'm Croatian.
Anyways surname 'Jelavić' can be written like 'Jelavić' and 'Јелавић'. (Croatian and Serbian)I don't think it has any special meaning tho, but I can be wrong. It's just a surname I think.

Jelavić must be derived from one of the places in Serbia and Bosnia and Herzegovina named Jelav as you can see at tinyurl.com/nrqmd9h.
