Morea is a feminine name with multiple possible origins. It may derive from the Greek place name Morea (a medieval name for the Peloponnese peninsula), or it could be a variant spelling of Moriah, a biblical mountain mentioned in Genesis. Some see it as a variation of Maura, meaning 'dark' or 'moorish' from Latin. In Polynesian languages, particularly Maori, similar names relate to words meaning 'ocean journey.' Morea has never been common in English-speaking countries but has an appealing melodic quality. The name carries an exotic, somewhat mysterious air with its possible connections to ancient geography and biblical history. Its brevity and vowel-rich pronunciation make it accessible across cultural boundaries.
