I personally like Eleonora best, in this form.
Order of preference:Lenore > Norah > Anora > Nora > Noor > Noreen > Lenora > Noras (only on a boy!) > Noora > Norana
Nora is my favorite spelling by far. Followed by Norah, Noor, Annora. I also like Eleanor, Elanor and Elinor.

I prefer Nora to Norah, and don't much enjoy any of the others. Annora looks more complete than Anora.
I dislike the “Nor” sound as a whole, but Lenora and Anora are okay.
Lenore is my fave, hands down. It's so elegantly gothic and resounding.I also like Norah, Noreen, and Lenora.It's not on your list but I also like Honora.
Nora, or possibly Norah, are my favorites here. Noor is fine, too, as is Lenora. Lenore seems a little incomplete to me.I've known several women named Noreen, and I think it sounds kind of dated, but not unattractive. (And certainly better than Maureen.)I've not encountered Noora, but that looks too much like a typo for me to enjoy.The other three - Anora, Noras, and Norana - are not my kind of name. Anora in particularly is so associated with the film now, I'm not sure it's usable.
Noras is Lithianian for Wish, but I think it would work as a name. Anora is an old English form of Lenora.

I like both Nora and Noor. Norah is fine too. I’d never seen Noora before and I quite like it.Not on your list but I also like Eleanora, Elanora, Leonora and Annora.
Also like Elenore and Eleonore.
Noor is the Persian form. Noora is a twist on that. Annora or Anora is an old English form of Lenora, though it gives of Arabic Persian vibes to me.
