Hannelore
Sign in to saveAlso known as Hannelore (first name), Hannelore (given name)
Hannelore is a German female given name, which is a combination of two names: Hanne, a German and Dutch diminutive or short form of Johanna, itself a feminized form of Iohannes (i.e. John), which means God is gracious. Lore, the German short form or diminutive of Eleanor, (i.e. Eleonore), a likely variant of the Latin Aenor, which is an old Germanic name of unknown meaning. There is an Occitan phrase "alia Aenor" meaning the other Aenor and used to distinguish a daughter with the same name of her mother. This became "Eleanore" in Old English.
