I love Nora and it would of definitely been on my list if I wasn’t having a boy!! X

Nora Batty. Just because these old lady names are coming back into fashion doesn’t make them nice!

It's fine if you ignore that it used to be a bit of a joke 'old people' name. (Norah Batty of the wrinkly stockings in 'Last of the Summer Wine'? But I suppose anyone under 40 wouldn't get that reference). Nowadays you would think more of the lovely Norah Jones.

However IMO it is still not as nice as Dora, Flora, Laura or Maura.

I know quite a few newborns called Nora, must be getting more popular

Was on my list if my son had been a girl x (although I had it spelled norah) x
