I personally like Eleonora best, in this form.
Nora is my favorite spelling by far. Followed by Norah, Noor, Annora. I also like Eleanor, Elanor and Elinor.

Noreen
Lenore

Nora is my favorite! Lenora is okay too.

Norah is my favorite spelling.
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.
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.

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.
