What is the meaning of the name Feodora ?

The baby name Feodora is a Female name , 4 syllables long and is pronounced fee-OH-dor-uh (/fiːˈoʊdərə/),fyo-DOH-rah (Russian-influenced: /fʲɪɐˈdorə/).

Feodora is Greek in Origin.

Feodora is a German- and Slavic-influenced form of Theodora, ultimately from Greek Theodōra, the feminine of Theodoros (theos “god” + dōron “gift”), meaning “gift of God.” The Fe- spelling mirrors transliterations used in Eastern Europe and echoes the related male name Feodor/Fyodor.

The name enjoyed particular visibility in 19th‑century European nobility: Princess Feodora of Leiningen (Queen Victoria’s half‑sister), Princess Feodora of Schleswig‑Holstein, and Princess Feodora of Saxe‑Meiningen all carried it, anchoring the name’s aristocratic aura. Usage has remained uncommon in the English‑speaking world but persists in Germany and parts of Central and Eastern Europe. International variants include Theodora (English/Greek), Teodora (Spanish, Italian, Romanian, Slavic), Feodora (German), and Fedora or Fédora (Russian, Italian/French). Short forms and nicknames range from Dora, Dori, and Thea to Theo and Fee. The related male counterparts are Theodore/Theodor and Fyodor/Feodor.
