KOHR-nor?
Hi!
My mum just told me the name of my imaginative friend from when I was a child. It was "KOHR-nor". She said, it sounded a bit like corner.
I'm trying to find out where the name could have come from, except from Connor. Any ideas would be much appreciated.
Thanks in advance!

Does it matter?
I say that you simply were unable to pronounce Connor.

Did anyone ever tell you about the Koh-i-noor diamond which found its way from Persia via India to end up among the British crown jewels (last worn by the Queen Mother)? Or were you ever taken to see it at the Tower of London? Or did you have any little Sikh friends - female - who would have had "Kaur" as a middle name?...No, perhaps not.

No, not as far as I know. :-)
But nice try!

Maybe you just played in the corner? Or the corridor? I mean, if you don't know what was in your mind, how can we? ;o) The only other name I can think it could've derived from (besides Conor) is Cornel? It's cute, though, that you had an imaginary friend...I never did. *sigh* Not enough imagination, I guess! ;O)Check Out Blinkyou.com for thousands of custom glitters and layouts

Rainbow-Maya is from Germany, so I doubt it has anything to do with "corner". :) I loved the name Rossy when I was little, but it's not a name here, so I have no idea where I got it from. Short and sweet like Swedish summer....

Your right, I'm from Germany, but I used to live in Scotland until I was three - when I had my "friend" Cornor. Cambria is probably right about mispronouncing Connor, I just hoped there might be a more special idea behind it. ;-)
