Liora

This is made up of two Hebrew names, Li, and Ora (the feminine form of Or). The MASCULINE form, Lior, is made up of also two Hebrew names, Li, and Or. The Variant of this name, Liorit, is made up of Li, and Orit. Very pretty name, that ages very well, is formal, as well cute, and there are many nicknames! Good name, and the meaning is awesome!

Sometimes spelled Leora. The name is virtually synonymous in meaning with Orli - also popular in Israel.

Liora is actually made of two Hebrew words: "Lee" (=to me/mine) and "Or" (=light). The ending "ah" is often used in Hebrew names to make them feminine (as in "Daniela" or "Michaela"), though the form "Lior" is also used for girls (in Israel anyway). So it means not just "light" but "my light".

By the way, it is also Hebrew for "light." Being the feminine form of Lior, which is also "light." That really makes it deLIGHTful and enLIGHTening. :)
