lmao! but your theory has holes in it, as it would have been Aventadoor.
Perhaps (snicker* snort* ) they used the old English form:

Origin of DOOR
Middle English dure, dor, from Old English duru door & dor gate; akin to Old High German turi door, Latin fores, Greek thyra
First Known Use: before 12th century

LOL.

But this is an aventador:


The person that "avents" in english I think is winnow (aventar: throw wheat/barley/rye in to the air to separate the grain from the straw)

So the translation would be something like winnower.

But hey it's just a bull's name.
