Endora Meaning and Origin
The name Endora is a girl’s name meaning “light” and is of Greek origin. This perfectly appropriate name for the new little light in your life extends back to mythology. Eudora was one of the 50 sea-nymph daughters of the ‘Old Man of the Sea’ Nereus and the Oceanid Doris. Alternatively, taken from the name of a biblical sorceress, the Witch of Endor, in 1 Samuel 28. This name has a romantic gothic allure to it, and if it sounds familiar, it’s because it was the name of a character from the sitcom Bewitched. It may seem unusual, but theirs a great chance she’ll never meet someone else with this name, and shortening it to Dora is a possibility that makes our hearts swoon.
