Re: Liora, Annora and Melora.
in reply to a message by Haven

This reminds me, I met a 2-year-old named Zora the other day (named for her grandma).I like Melora best because I like the L sound in front of the -or-. Liora has "your" and Annora has "nor" but Melora has "laur." I just like the sound.Annora will probably "work" best. Liora I've seen pretty often spelled Leora, which looks warmer to me. That works too; and Melora has a fantasyish tinge about it but still works fine... not so well as the others within the rest of your list, however. Annora is best among them, too.Did you ever get info on the origin of Melora?- mirfak

Nope.The one person I know who has it has a serious "I'm so much better than you" attitude. She checks the boards fairly reguarly, but refuses to give the information. (Mary Olive/Sidonie)Leora brings to mind the 1920s, a very strong, hard woman. Liora has a different feel. It's interesting that we often get the completely opposite view of a name. :-D

Wha? Refuses to give the information? On Behind the Name??? Excuse me while I wipe the wine spray off my screen... can you link me to a post where she makes this refusal? :face curling and twisting in incomprehension: What the...Okay. I didn't mean that Liora is chilly by the way - it seems very elegant, and I like it. It reminds me of Liana but a little more earthy. - mirfak
