Help[Opinions] Re: Elora and Alora
in reply to a message by Amandine
I like Elora more than Alora, but both are pretty.
I don't know if there's a pop culture reason behind their sudden popularity. A quick Google didn't tell me anything apart from the fact that both of them are places: Elora is a town in Ontario, Canada, and Alora (Álora) is a city in Spain. But I don't think that would affect popularity.
My theory is that they're just combinations of trendy sounds. The El- prefix, complete with Al- variant. The -ora suffix. We'll surely get Ilora soon. They remind me of Eliana, Aliana, Elara, Alara, Eliora, Aliora. I think all of these names are pretty. Elora and Alora might just be variants.

Listen to the MUSTN'TS, child,
Listen to the DON'TS
Listen to the SHOULDN'TS
The IMPOSSIBLES, the WON'TS
Listen to the NEVER HAVES
Then listen close to me—
Anything can happen, child,
ANYTHING can be.
