Proud bearer here. I love my name.Pros: It's really beautiful and poetic without being ostentatious or over the top. A few cute nickname options (Leo, Lio, Li-Li). Easy to spell which is a plus for small children. Not overly used or hyper-popular. Also not extremely bizarre or weird.Cons: Your child *will* be called Lora, Lira, Lyra, etc...she'll have to spell it over and over for some people. Particularly malicious children might tease by pronouncing it "Lie - ora", devolving into "liar - rah", etc as kids sometimes do. :P It'll be okay, it doesn't have any perverse or really problematic nicknames.I think this is a lovely name for any girl, particularly if you have Jewish heritage. It's a nice name, happy, pretty, and a little sporty imo.
I had a music teacher with this name, but she spelled it Liorah. I agree that this name is beautiful, and I plan to use it as the heroine of an upcoming novel.
So beautiful; absolutely feminine, soft, elegant and exotic.Pronounced as lee or uh. Love it! ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥☆☆☆☆☆■○□◇●□◆□\●□□~○□■☆●♡♥●■□○▪■☆♡□○■♡♡■○★★★■☆♡♡☆♥♥■●●▪▪●□■○□■■●□◆♥ (:

Liora is my Hebrew name that I picked for myself (my parents stuck me with Yaakov, which means Jacob). I love the meaning of the name for its poetic and positive qualities, and the name itself has a lyrical, unique sound.
Lovely name! Reminds me of a lyre or flower. I like it better than Lior, though both forms are nice.

I love this name and its meaning, simply beautiful. It is probably my first favorite name. I also happened to find out that this is what my aunt told my parents to name me. Bummer! I don't care though, this is what I like to be called. ;-)
