Love it or hate it? Nora or Norah?
I've been throwing it around a bit lately and I think it's very pretty, feminine and goes well with potential middle names (Rose and Catherine).
DP suggested Rosemary last night... because he likes it on his roast. :help:
I like it - Norah Rose especially.
At least your DH is offering suggestions!!
Super overly keen TTC'ers lol.:
i like it. i prefer it as norah :)

I like Norah :) it's very pretty :)
Nora is a stalker. Bloody Nora. She kills my life.
Not my cup of tea. I don't find it to be a feminine name, but that's just my opinion :)
Please explain? :lol::
I only found out that this was my Great Grandmothers Name recently - I think it is a very pretty old fashioned name :)
15 years ago DH broke up with Nora because she was too clingy. Every now and then she pops up and stalks him for a while. Saturday nights after a few drinks is her favourite time to call. Her personal best is about 30 calls in a day. Her real name is Leanne but Nora is one of the fake names she has used to trick Dh or his staff into returning her calls.
Anyone who has kids at primary school age will know one of the first jokes they get and retell ad nauseum is -
Knock Knock.
Who's there?
Nora
Nora who?
Nora Bone (cue hysterical giggles)
Yeah. Nah.
LMAO! Oh dear, the woman needs to get a life :):
DH has a stalker as well, perhaps not to that extent :)
:ROFL::
Too old fashioned for me and I don't find it feminine either
I don't mind it. I think Nora looks more modern than Norah. Reminds me of Dora the Explorer :-)
I have a meddling old Auntie Nora. she puts me off the name. If you met her you'd never call your child Nora. :rofl:
I have an utterly adorable Aunt Flora.
:ROFL: :ROFL::
I think of Norah jones when I hear it, it's an alright name, not overly feminine to me. I wouldn't look twice if I heard the name, but I wouldn't call my child that :)
Sent from the land of "iSomethings" so forgive me for any spelking misstaks ;)
My nan was Mabel Norah and hated her name!! Lol it's so in fashion now she must be laughing in heaven :)
love norah...
I love it too, both spellings. But I'm an ol' fashioned gal.
Reminds me of norah jones. I don't mind it.
I don't mind it, but I wouldn't use it.
I loved it and kept suggesting it for DD2, but DH kept responding with 'bloody norah!'
I like it because it reminds me of Norah Jones, but I probably wouldn't use it because it reminds me of "Bloody Norah!!"
I'd spell it Nora. I think it looks a bit gentler. Norah looks masculine to me.
Nora Catherine.
Just randomly, I was thinking about the name Nora recently & decided I liked it. I have no idea why I was thinking about that name. Maybe so I could form an opinion just for you :lol:
I prefer without the "h" for simplicity.
The only drawback if you ever read Enid Blyton, there was a really annoying character called Nora in some of her books. I can't remember which ones.
First thing that comes to mind is Bloddy Nora the I think Norah jones who has a beautiful voice but not a name I could use.
I'm not sure about Norah but depends on surname I guess.
I like Torah, I know it's similar, but I like it.
I really like it :) was on the list for DD2
I like the spelling Nora and Rose as the second name
Love it. For ease of spelling I'd go with Nora. I'm always needing to spell my name and it gets pretty annoying at times. Nora is a bit elegant, slightly unusual and works for a child and an adult.
I once worked with a girl named Noura. She was Lebanese and called everyone habib! So I can't help but think of that!
I laughed out loud and startled myself o.O:
I like Nora but could never use it as one of my step-dad's growing up always used "Holy Nora!" as his explicative of choice, and every time I hear it, I think of that.
