Name Root:
theós dôron > Theódōros
Meaning:*
This name derives from the Ancient Greek “Theódōros ‎(Θεόδωρος),” composed of two elements: “theós (Θεός)” (divine, a deity, a god, God)plus “dôron ‎(δῶρον)” (gift). In turn, the name means “God’s gift.” The name was popular among early Christians and was borne by several saints. The name has been used for saints, popes, several emperors, and a president. The feminine form of Theodore is Theodora. The name Dorothy derives from the same Greek root, in reverse order. Godiva is from an Anglo-Saxon version of the “gift of God.” 1) Saints Theodora and Didymus († 304) are Christian saints whose legend is based on a 4th-century “acta” and the word of Saint Ambrose. Theodora was a young noblewoman of Alexandria who had refused to offer sacrifice to the Roman gods. 2) Theodora (~500–548) was empress of the Roman (Byzantine) Empire and the wife of Emperor Justinian I.
