What does the name Kaidra mean and what is its origin?

I like it very much. I´ve known it when I was reading something about Laisha Hailey and its her sister´s name.

What does the name Kaidra mean and what is its origin?
I wasn't able to find it's orgin. they probably made it up. It is pretty though.
Reply:It sounds made up, maybe like a mixture of 2 other names.





The closest match I could find was "Caitria". That's an Irish form of the name Katherine.





...And "Katherine" is... From the Greek name Αικατερινη (Aikaterine). The etymology is debated: it could derive from the earlier Greek name ‘Εκατερινη (Hekaterine), which came from ‘εκατερος (hekateros) "each of the two"; it could derive from the name of the goddess HECATE; it could be related to Greek αικια (aikia) "torture"; or it could be from a Coptic name meaning "my consecration of your name".

I also found the name "Keturah"


Usage: Biblical, English


Other Scripts: קְטוּרָה (Hebrew)


Pronounced: ki-TOOR-a, kee-TYOOR-a [key]


Means: "incense" in Hebrew. In the Old Testament she was Abraham's wife after Sarah died.
