Norah!
I'm going through a bit of a Norah/Nora phase... I'm really loving it! I used to think it was ugly, but now I see it as very beautiful, and would definitely use it... I haven't come up with any combos, though, so I would like to see what you guys can come up with. Also, which do you prefer, Norah or Nora? I'm finding I like Norah just a bit better...

I prefer Nora. I am a traditional-spelling kind of girl, though. No extra letters needed, imo. I prefer it as a name on its own, though it's lovely as a nn (for Eleanor, Eleanora, etc.) as well.

I definitely prefer the spelling Norah, it has that extra oomph that Nora just does not have. I wish I could come up with some quality combos, but right now my mind is sort of blank. If I come up with any, I'll post them.

I love love love it. I prefer Norah as a full name and either one as a nickname. Norah Catherine, perhaps? I know of a woman on another board with a Norah Elise.

I think Nora / Norah is beautiful, though I love Eleanor so much that I tend to like it as a nn for Eleanor. I like both spellings. Norah maybe looks a bit less nicknamey to me. I just tried to come up with some combos for Ladybug, so here they are:
Nora Josephine (probably my fave, dittoing Beatrix)
Nora Abigail
Nora June
Nora Ruth
Nora Maeve
Nora Rachel
Nora Gwyneth
Nora Sarai
Nora Margaret
Nora Blythe
Nora Truth
Nora Lillian
Nora Evelyn
Nora Bronwen
Nora Elspeth
Nora Celeste
Nora Caroline
Nora Katharina
Nora Charlotte
Nora Constance
Nora Mercy
Nora Miriam
Nora Lucinda
Nora Lavender
Nora Frances

Yay!!I think it's pretty old-fashioned, but I do like it. I like Norah better, which is why I use that as my nn.
