What does everyone think of the name Valora for a girl?  It means "bravery."

It's okay. Nickname would be Val?

I don't like it. It's too 'word made into a name' for me. And this is coming from someone who generally likes word names ;)!
To me it's just...I don't know. Valor, with an 'a' tacked on the end.

I like it. You could use Lora as a nickname.

I really like it. I usually *don't* like names that are words with an extra letter or something, but this one is really pretty.

I like Valarie better, or Valorie

I have had issues with a Val in the past so I think I'm biased against it because of that.
But it is a pretty name.

I assume is "Va-lore-uh", which is not the same as valor "Val-er", the word. So that isn't an issue imo.

However, it is too close to velour, a velvet like fabric, and something often used in robes, and those hideous colored lounge clothes that just look like the old style of jogging outfits, only more tacky.

It also makes me think of a name I made up that I like better. Vairlyse - "Vair-leese".

Not my cup of tea. Makes me think that someone misspelled Valeria.

Hi. I think it's pretty. You could always use Val as a nickname.

It's not a bad name. It makes me think of velour, though.

It's okay, but I like Valerie better. Valora makes me think of a big viking woman for some reason. :/

I reaaaally like your icon. :)
