Enor is Breton in Origin.

Enor is a rare given name with strong Breton credentials. In Brittany it appears as a masculine counterpart or truncation of Énora/Enora, a name tied to medieval Breton legend (Saint Enora) and ultimately to Latin Honorius “honor, esteem”; on that pathway Enor is commonly interpreted to mean “honor.” Sporadic attestations occur in Breton and French records, with modest revival alongside other regional names in recent decades.

Outside Brittany, Enor sometimes functions as a modern short form of Eleanor/Leonor in Romance- and English-speaking contexts, or as a phonetic cousin to Scandinavian Einar (though the latter is etymologically separate), which would suggest the alternative sense “lone warrior.” Variants and related forms include Énor, Enora (feminine), Honoré, Honora, Leonor, and Éléonore; nicknames include En and Nori. Usage remains uncommon internationally, giving Enor a concise, cross-cultural profile without sacrificing depth of heritage.
