Noora

Noora is a Finnish feminine form of Nora, itself a short form of Eleonora or Honora, names ultimately derived from Greek and Latin roots relating to light or honor respectively. The name is also used independently in Arabic-speaking and Muslim communities as a variant of Nura, from the Arabic root nur meaning light, and in this tradition it carries associations with divine or spiritual illumination. Related forms include Nora, Nura, Nur, Eleonora, and Honora.
