I like Feodora. It's not too close to fedora at all. I was blown away by it the first time I came across it, in a biography of Queen Victoria years ago.

---

I think it needs something classic like Feodora Helena, Feodora Irene or Feodora Louisa. Otherwise something gentle and nature-inspired - Feodora Iris, Feodora Willow, Feodora Viola.

---

Nickname - Feo!

---

I am going to add Feodora to my list.

I do think it's too close to fedora. It's the first thing I thought of when I saw the thread title.

Is it bad that I like it because it is so close to fedora? That just gives it a classy, glossy, dangerous edge I quite enjoy.

---

Dora is the most obvious nickname, or maybe Fea/Fia?

---

I want to pair it sith something old fashioned, brassy, and 1920's esque, like Feodora Blanche, Feodora Roxanne, or Feodora Liza.

yes. I had to look twice to see it wasn't Fedora.
I like the suggestion of Fiodora though.

I love it. It's very exotic and pretty! I think very 'english' mn's would go best with it because it's such an unusual name, like Feodora Jane, Feodora Emmeline, Feodora Rosalie, Feodora Winifred . . .

I know of a Feodora. Unless it's Fiodora. I've only ever heard it, never seen it. She goes by Feo/Feo. I love it. Fun and way better than Fiona.

Nicknames:
Feo
Dora
Dory
Fee
Fe-Do

I thought "fedora" as soon as I saw your title. :-/

How are you pronouncing Feodora? That might make a difference. I'm used to Fyodor having the stresson the first syllable. Is Feodora said the same way? Or is the stress on the "-dora" part? If so, then the fedora connection is difficult to see past. Then again, no one wears fedoras anymore (more's the pity.)

Dorie, Dodie, Feddie, Effie?

Kind of a style soup, but there it is. Hope there's something that tickles your fancy. :-)

Way too close to a hat! Unfortunately, I am the crazy one who posts stuff ranging from a tornado death wish to a name that is more Dragon Age than real name!
