feminine · English origin
Delora is an English feminine name that appears to be an elaborated or phonetic variant of Dolores, the Spanish name derived from María de los Dolores, meaning Mary of Sorrows, ultimately rooted in the Latin word dolor, meaning pain or grief. The name arose in English-speaking contexts as an Anglicized adaptation, smoothing the Spanish pronunciation into a more familiar form. Related names include Dolores, Delores, and Lola.
