Bolor is Mongolian in Origin.

Bolor is a Mongolian given name taken from the common noun bolor, meaning “crystal” or “rock crystal.” In Mongolian poetry and everyday speech it connotes purity, clarity, and brilliance, making it a natural virtue name. The lexeme is widely considered a loan into Mongolian, ultimately traceable to Persian bolūr “crystal,” likely via Turkic intermediaries, though in modern usage it is fully integrated as native vocabulary.

As a personal name in Mongolia and among Mongolic communities, Bolor is used on its own and more often as the first element in compounds: Bolormaa (“crystal mother”), Bolorchimeg (“crystal ornament”), Bolor-Erdene (“crystal jewel”), Bolortuya (“crystal ray”), and Bolortsetseg (“crystal flower”). Diminutive Boloroo is common. The name is chiefly feminine today but can be unisex. Related, not identical, forms include Turkish Billur. Usage has been steady since the mid‑20th century without being overly common.
