Rendor is English in Origin.

Rendor is an extremely rare given name of uncertain origin, mostly seen in contemporary English-speaking use. It echoes Central European sound patterns yet lacks traditional roots there; in Hungarian, for instance, rendőr (pronounced REN-dor) means “police officer” and is not a personal name. No medieval, biblical, or saintly bearers are recorded, pointing to a modern coinage or creative respelling with sporadic late 20th–21st century adoption, and it seldom appears in national baby-name statistics.

As a modern formation, its meaning is interpretive. Some read it as blending Ren - linked to French René “reborn” or Japanese Ren “lotus” - with the -dor element from Greek dōron “gift” (as in Theodore, Isidore), yielding “gift of renewal.” Variants and near-forms include Randor, Rendar, Rendorr, and Rendon; short forms include Ren or Dory.
