Phaidra

Phaidra is a charming name that is generally used to name both boys and girls. 
Phaidra comes from the Ancient Greek language. The name was originally used in one of the most famous tales in Greek mythology. Its original form Phaedra was the name of a Greek princess. She was the daughter of the Cretan king Minos and the daughter of the sorceress Pasiphae. Theseus, a Greek hero and the son of Poseidon would come to the island of Crete on a quest to find the Minotaur. Phaedra married him and left the island along with the hero. Phaedra’s story has been a persistent theme in literature all over the world. It has been depicted in poetry, plays, films, and operas.
The name came from the Greek word phaidros. The meaning of Phaidra is 'bright' or 'light'.
Phaidra has seen quite a few different trends with its usage. One could think that the name was only popular with the Ancient Greeks. However, the name has stood the test of time, and was used in recent years as seen by American rugby footballer Phaidra Knight
