    Isadora

    Pronounced iz-ah-DOR-ah

    girl
    Not found in the KJV text — No — the name Isadora does not appear in the King James Bible. Christian families use it for its meaning, "Gift of Isis; Gift of God", and for the biblical themes that meaning touches, not because anyone in Scripture is called Isadora.
    Meaning
    "Gift of Isis; Gift of God"
    Origin
    Greek

    While Isadora's etymology references a pagan goddess, in Christian tradition the name was reinterpreted as 'gift of God.' Saint Isidore of Seville preserved classical learning through the Dark Ages. The name celebrates divine generosity and the gift of knowledge.

    Spiritual meaning

    Isadora celebrates God's generous gifts — especially wisdom and knowledge freely given to those who seek them.

    Questions about biblical name meanings

    How do I find the biblical meaning of a name?

    Type the name into the search box above. The tool returns the Hebrew, Greek, Aramaic, or Latin root behind the name, its literal meaning, and the King James Version passages where it appears.

    Does every name have a biblical meaning?

    No. Many modern Christian names never appear in Scripture, and some popular 'biblical meanings' circulating online are inaccurate. Where a name is thematic rather than scriptural, we say so plainly instead of inventing a verse for it.

    Which Bible translation do the verses come from?

    The King James Version. It is public domain in the United States, so the text can be quoted and shared freely.

    How can I tell whether a name is actually in the Bible?

    Each result distinguishes a name that appears in the KJV from a later Christian or thematic name. Related verses explain a theme; they are not presented as proof that a modern name occurs in Scripture.
