Nura

Nura is a feminine given name of Arabic origin, derived from the root n-w-r meaning light or illumination, closely related to the classical Arabic word nur. It has been widely used across the Arab world and among Muslim communities in Africa and Central Asia, where light carries strong spiritual and poetic resonance. Variant forms include Noura, Nour, and Nur, the last of which functions as both a masculine and feminine name in many traditions.
