Oh, but
Noor Anastasia is so gorgeous. But I understand; even perfect combos can get old.
Noor Alexandra immediately popped into my head. OK. How about:
Aida -- Gorgeous, especially if pronounced, "ah-EE-da." Where's my anvil?
Aida Mirabel?
Aida Christiane /
Christabel?
Aida Pascale?
Farah -- All I can think of is Ms. Fawcett. I know she spells this with two "r's," but she owns the name to me. Not a favorite.
Farah Jasmine?
Farah Persis?
Farah Tanith?
Malaika -- You know, I've always wondered about this name. The pronunciation, I mean. It does *look* creative, but obviously isn't. If pronounced, "mah-lah-EE-ka," then that would go a long way to dispelling the creative look of it, if that makes sense. Anyway, you've asked for combinaitons, so how about
Malaika Eve?
Malaika Johari?
Malaika Surya (as in Ms. Bonaly)?
Mona -- I always thought this was a Gaelic name. Perhaps both cultures came to the name independantly. How about
Mona Roxelana?
Mona Ruby?
Mona Renata?
Nadia -- Isn't this Russian? Perhaps it's like
Mona.
Nadia in any language is very beautiful.
Nadia Sophie?
Nadia Mayim ("mah-EEM")?
Noor -- So elegant it hurts.
Noor Melisande?
Noor Hadassah?
Noor Jamila?
Noor Montserrat?
Noor Mercedes?
Noor Soledad?
Noor Ximena ("hih-MAY-na")?
Noor Inez? The Spanish-Moorish vibe is taking over in my head with
Noor.
Soraya -- Oh, I'd really love this name if it wasn't for that skin condition, psoriasis (sp?). Putting that aside, how about
Soraya Veronique?
Soraya Nantale ("nahn-TAH-leh"),
Soraya Marjani ("mar-ZHAH-nee")?
Soraya Lilavati?
Soraya Tamar?
Noor is by far the easiest to combine. I could have gone on and on with that list. Thanks. This was fun. Good luck!
