Re: Honoria
in reply to a message by Kate
The OR ee a ending is not attractive to my ears. Although I do give the name kudos for being unique. I happen to love Honour (as a male name - this site lists it as feminine) and Honora.

I prefer Honor (as in English actress Honor Blackman) and Honora (HoNORa)(from which Nora is derived).
I would pronounce Honoria the first way you describe, emphasis on NOR.
