Origin and meaning of Theodoros
Theodoros comes from the Greek theós (θεός), 'God', and dôron (δῶρον), 'gift' — literally 'gift of God'. The name is borne by several Orthodox military saints, including Saint Theodore of Amasea and Saint Theodore Stratelates, both highly venerated in Greece. Often shortened to Thodoris or Thodoros in daily use, it combines a deeply positive meaning with a long Greek historical and religious tradition.
