She is considered one of her country's most notable queens consort and one of the only two who were not foreigners.
To distinguish her from other infantas of the same name, she is commonly known as Eleanor of Viseu (after her father's title) or Eleanor of Lancaster (Lancaster, a name used by some Portuguese royals after her great-grandmother Queen Philippa of Lancaster).
In Portugal, she is known universally as Rainha Dona Leonor.
