English term or phrase: Dedicated to God
I would like to know what the word or words are for "Dedicated to God" for a name for my daughter
Diana
Greek translation:Θεοδώρα
Explanation:
Diana, dedicated to God is
"Αφιερωμένη στο Θεό", but we do not have any name in Greek that expresses that. However, we have the names "Θεοδώρα" and "Δωροθέα" (Dorothy), which both mean "a gift of God". In the form I've given them to you, they are female names.
