Comments for the name Lora

I believe there may be some Scottish root to this name. There is a Falls of Lora and a Beinn Lora, outside the village of Connel near Oban on the west coast of Scotland. I've found some sources which say that the falls were so called by Ossian the blind poet who mentions in his work a Dun-Lora, Lora's Heath and Battle of Lora among others. So far however, I haven't found a meaning.

I love this name and I like the way it's spelled. But I having trouble finding a middle name (other than Lee) to go with this name.

My mom's name is Lora, and I LOVE IT! It is a better spelling than Laura, in my opinion!

I like this name spelled Lorah, because it is the most unique form of Laura.

This is rarely used in Germany today. Many girls are named Laura instead.
