Wilbor is an uncommon and unique given name of English origin. It is derived from the Old English personal name 'Willbur', which was a compound of the elements 'will' meaning 'resolute' or 'strong-willed', and 'beorh' signifying 'bearing' or 'protection'. Therefore, Wilbor could be interpreted as 'strongly bearing protection' or 'strength in protection'. The name fell out of fashion during the Middle Ages but has seen some recent revival, making it a distinctive choice for parents looking for an unusual yet meaningful name.
"The name Wilbor was most popular between the years 1919 and 1942, with a notable spike in usage during those periods."
