Hi

Expecting another little one later this year. Not finding out the gender but we are thinking Noor for a girl. We are Muslim and we love the meaning in Arabic. Opinions please Smile

Thank you all so much for your feedback - it seems like Noor is definitely a winner! I’m so happy to hear it’s got such a great reaction - makes me even more set on it now if little one is a girl 😍

One of my absolute favourite names that would work at every age. Elegant, simple, and beautiful.

Soffit · 31/03/2022 19:43

I prefer Noura.

DiscoStusMoonboots · 31/03/2022 19:38

Love it - I know a fab Noor.

Knightbuss · 31/03/2022 19:31

Noor is utterly gorgeous. Understated elegance personified.

A beautiful name with a beautiful meaning. It's one of my favourite names.

Queen Noor. I've always thought it a beautiful name because of her.

peaceinourtime · 30/03/2022 21:41

I knew a Noor, she was lovely as it is the name as well.

It’s beautiful Flowers.

DiscoBadgers · 30/03/2022 19:02

It makes me think of Noor Inyat Khan from the SOE - a brilliantly brave and intelligent woman.

Beautiful name

Survivingmy3yearold · 29/03/2022 22:20

I am not a fan, too close to snore.

I found out about her when I read this book
They were all incredible women but I think Noor was really very special. .
