Re: Liora
Liora is a Latinate feminine form of Lior, an old Hebrew name used by both genders. It is often listed as a suggested and sanctioned name for parents to give Jewish children, and many examples of such lists are posted online by Jewish communities. (Example: http://mkjcc.org/en/methodical_center/choose_jewish_name/ ) Great emphasis on a name's meaning in the Torah is placed on the naming ceremony, and I generally place my faith in the meanings claimed by the Jewish naming community.Lior Navok is a famous (male) composer from Israel.

P.S.... I forgot to check this ... I'm assuming it is pronounced lee-AW-ruh?
