Isidore

Isidore (/ˈɪzədɔːr/, sometimes spelled Isidor, Isadore, or Isador) is a male given name of Greek origin, derived from Ἰσίδωρος, Isídōros (a compound of Ἶσις, Ísis, and δῶρον, dōron: "gift of [the goddess] Isis").

Similar "gift" names include the Greek "Theodore" ("gift of God"), the Persian "Mithradates" ("gift of Mithras") and Datis ("gift"), and the Hebrew "Matanya" ("gift of YHWH"). The Indo-European "gift" names are ultimately derived from the *PIE root *deh₃-, "to give".

Isidora is the equivalent female given name.

    Sad Story

    by: Plain White T's

    Got nothing to say anymore
    There's nothing new
    It's all been done before
    Not looking to settle the score
    So please let me be
    Thought I'd be the one you'd adore
    I always thought
    I would be so much more
    Want something that I can't afford
    So please let me be
    Please let me be
    This is the end of a really sad story
    But don't feel bad for me
    I started out alone
    And in the end that's where I'll be
    Like the star of a really sad story
    You don't live happily
    I started out alone
    And in the end that's where I'll be
    Got nothing to say anymore
    Originality went out that door
    Not finding what I'm looking for
    So please let me be
    Please let me be
    This is the end of a really sad story
    But don't feel bad for me
    I started out alone
    And in the end that's where I'll be
    Like the star of a really sad story
    You don't live happily
    I started out alone
    And in the end that's where I'll be
    I'll walk alone
    I'll walk alone
    Got nothing to say anymore
    There's nothing new
    It's all been done before
    Not looking to settle the score
    So please let me be
    Thought I'd be the one you'd adore
    I always thought
    I would be so much more
    Now I'm all alone in this war
    So please let me be
    Please let me be
    This is the end of a really sad story
    But don't feel bad for me
    I started out alone
    And in the end that's where I'll be
    Like the star of a really sad story
    You don't live happily
    I started out alone
    And in the end that's where I'll be
