}}Isidore ({{IPAc-en|ˈ|ɪ|z|ɪ|d|ɔːr}} {{respell|IZ|id|or}}; also spelled Isador, Isadore and Isidor) is a masculine given name. The name is derived from the Greek name Isídōros (Ἰσίδωρος, latinized Isidorus) and can literally be translated to 'gift of Isis'. The name has survived in various forms throughout the centuries. Although it has never been a common name, it has historically been popular due to its association with Catholic figures and among the Jewish diaspora. Isidora is the feminine form of the name.
