 I have recently been loving the name Norah or Nora. I don't know which spelling I prefer though..I think I like the h on the end. Any preference?

I love it as a nickname for Eleanor. I think I prefer Nora as a nickname and Norah if you were using it as a full name. With the H, it seems more complete.

this makes sense!
I really can't decide over the two, I like them equally.

I think the h gives it a more hebrew allure.

I like the h on the end. It feels softer.

Norah looks like NO-rah or Nor-RAH to me, which I dislike.
So, Nora.

Nora.

Though I hate the name myself, and would never use it, if I had to, I like the look of it better with the H.

My mom and my sister are both named Nora. I think I prefer the h spelling though. Softer, maybe.

I've been thinking about Enora lately.

But then it just may be that I like the name but feel the need to distinguish it from theirs in some wasy.

I like both, but if I had to choose, Norah.

It's not my style at all but for some reason I'm beginning to really love it. I think I prefer Norah but I'm really not sure!

This has recently been asked, actually.

I prefer Norah because I think the H makes it look more complete. I'm a Sarah, though, so maybe I prefer Hs. :)

I prefer Norah, but that's just because Norah has been my favourite name since I was about eleven and I read it in a book, and of course it was spelled like that. The h is kind of superfluous, probably inspired by names like Hannah and Sarah, even though the origin is totally different, so I guess Nora would be the more 'correct' spelling... but I still like Norah best.

I prefer Norah, but I don't dislike Nora.

I love the name Nora, and definitely like it better without the H.

Either spelling is fine with me, but I personally prefer Norah. I absolutely love the name!
