Moira

The name Moira has its roots in Greek mythology, where the Moirai were the three goddesses of fate and destiny. They were responsible for determining the course of human life and were believed to have immense power over the fates of mortals.

In Greek, the word 'moira' literally means 'share' or 'portion', referring to the share of life allotted to each individual by the Fates. The name Moira itself is derived from this concept, embodying the idea of fate and destiny.

While the name is of Greek origin, it has been adopted and used in various cultures and languages over time. It has a strong, powerful, and somewhat mystical quality, reflecting its connections to the ancient Greek deities.

In modern times, the name Moira has gained popularity as a unique and meaningful choice, particularly in English-speaking countries. It offers a sense of intrigue and significance, while also being relatively uncommon.
