HelpRe: Which Nora form?
in reply to a message by Wish Fish
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.
