What do you think of the name Noura? (NOO-ra)

I first I thought it was like Nora. It’s okay I guess, but I don’t care for it. As Molly said, I prefer Noor.

It feels somewhat boorish. I dislike the heavy NOO- sound.

I think it's lovely, but I do prefer Nour or Noor. In an Anglophone context, Noura feels a bit too much like it's trying to pass as Nora.

Good point! I prefer Nour as well, but then I came across this version and I hadn't heard it before.
