All of his names are like nicknames. Estel and Elessar... He also was Elrond's foster son for a while, so I am assuming they gave him a name to see him fit in with their kind.
His name Strider became rather important because he then took the name in elfish, Telcontari, and used it as a family name. He also was known as Elessar for his remarkable abilities in the third book...I don't want to mention them because I might ruin it for the ones that haven't read it yet. Quote:

Over the cobbles he clatters and clangs in the dark inn-yard. And he taps with his whip on the shutters, but all is locked and barred. He whistles a tune to the window, and who should be waiting there But the landlord’s black-eyed daughter, Bess, the landlord’s daughter, Plaiting a dark red love-knot into her long black hair" Highwayman Alfred Noyes |
