Devorah

[Draco79]

No that's not a typo - Devorah is the original biblical spelling! What do you think of it?

I would t pronounce Devorah like Deborah with a V though. Don’t know if that matters.

I would say deb-ra or deb-uh-ra but I would say duh-VOR-a. Not sure if that’s the pronunciation you want OP.

Yoni is indeed a real name ‘merry. I never had an issue with it till I joined MN and now it’s made it very difficult to meet an actual person called it.

Mali, I suppose Fanny is the same but I've never met one.

It sounds a bit like a planet is some far off galaxy.

Yes Fanny would be the same. I only know of one who is a very old lady who I’m guessing was named before fannies were called fannies.

I love Devorah, and know a fabulous one.

Yoni is a name, short for Yehonatan (Jonathan)

Is Yoni a real name not just an MN word?

Haha, yes it is the name of my (Israeli) cousin. A reasonably common name there, and as a pp said, sometimes a nickname for Yonatan (Jonathan)
