Lenora was one of the invented names most common and popular in the Soviet Union from about 1917-1940. It was a smushing-together of the first letters in each word of the phrase "Lenin is our weapon." As far as these invented Soviet names go, this is one of the ones that looks and sounds pretty normal.
