Fulgor or fulgour (FUHL-guhr) It means splendor; brightness. From
Latin fulgor (brightness), from fulgere (to shine). Ultimately from the
Indo-European root bhel- (to shine or burn), which also gave us blaze, blank,
blond, bleach, blanket, flame, refulgent, fulminate, and effulgent. Earliest
documented use: 1600.
