Gift of God
Theadora is a feminine variant of Theodore, derived from the Greek elements 'theos' (God) and 'doron' (gift). While the spelling Theodora is more historically common, this version offers a softer, more phonetic appeal for modern parents. It shares the same roots as Dorothy, but with the elements reversed.
