Origin:Romanian
Other Origin(s):Greek
Meaning:Longing; Spear; Gift of God
Doru is a masculine name. In Ancient Greece and Homeric epics, the dory or doru was a spear, regarded as a symbol of military power, that was possibly more important than the sword. As a name, though, it might be from the Romanian word dor meaning “longing,” or from tudor meaning “gift of God.” The latter is the Romanian version of Theodore, thereby sharing its meaning. And let’s be honest, while you cradle your little warrior in your arms, what else could be going through your mind?
