Liora
Pronounced lee-OR-ah
girl
Not found in the KJV text — No — the name Liora does not appear in the King James Bible. Christian families use it for its meaning, "My light; God's light for me", and for the biblical themes that meaning touches, not because anyone in Scripture is called Liora.
- Meaning
- "My light; God's light for me"
- Origin
- Hebrew
Liora is a beautiful Hebrew name meaning 'my light' or 'light for me.' Light is one of Scripture's most powerful metaphors — God's first creative act, Christ's self-description, and the believer's calling. A child named Liora carries the declaration that God's light has come personally into their life.
Spiritual meaning
Liora proclaims a personal truth — 'my light.' Not light in general, but God's specific, personal illumination shining into one life.
