Meanings

A female given name: derived from Theodore.

Theodora (Greek: Θεοδώρα, Theodōra) is a feminine given name, the feminine version of Theodore, which derives from the Greek words θεός, theos, "god" and δῶρον, doron, "gift". Theodora is first attested in Mycenaean Greek, written in the Linear B syllabic script, as 𐀳𐀃𐀈𐀨, te-o-do-ra. The name Dorothy (Greek: Δωροθέα, Dōrothea) contains the same word elements in reverse order. It was the name of several saints and queens, including Theodora, a 6th-century Byzantine empress honored as a saint in the early Christian Church. Teodora, a variant, is among the top 10 most popular names for girls born in Serbia between 2003-2005.
