Re: Middle name for Nora?
is the H is Sarah pretentious? I like Norah
as for middle names, something classic like Elizabeth or Jane
Above Us Only Sky
I have a cousin named Nora Ellen. I believe Ellen is a family name.
I think Norah is obnoxious; I much prefer Nora.
I dig Nora Catherine, and Nora June is coming to mind for some reason.

Holy crap. My cousin Nora Ellen legally changed her name to Nora Eve!
My Lunch Blog
I absolutely adore the name Nora. I like Norah as well, but prefer without the H for some reason.
Middle names... Elizabeth, Katherine, Grace (LOVE Nora Grace)...
I definitely prefer Nora over Norah. So pretty. My MIL's name is Nora, and she's named after her mom, who was a Leanora. Both so nice.
Nora Claire
Nora Jane
Nora Miriam (bonus on this one---means "wished for child" in Hebrew)
I love Nora, with or without the H.
Definitely agree, something classic for a middle name - Nora Elizabeth, Nora Catherine, etc.
Norah is on our short list for girls. We will use the H.
Norah Ann
Norah Jean (although I was told this reminded them of Norma Jean)
Norah Sue
DH loves the name Piper so Norah Piper may be an option.
We considered:
Nora Mae
Nora June
Nora Elaine
Nora Elizabeth
I loooooooove the name Nora.
And I named my kid Sara so let's be pretentious together.
Click me, click me!
I love the name Nora! How many syllables is your last name? I think that matters when choosing a long/short middle name.
Two! Ryhmes with Heldbun
Nora Lee
Nora Jane
Nora Anne (or Ann if the "e" is pretentious
)
then I'd go with either a 1 syllable MN or a 3 syllable one. Actually, 3 syllables might make for a really long name.
I think that since Nora ends in a vowel sound then starting the MN off in a consonant makes more sense to me. So like "Nora Ann" sorta runs together but "Nora Lynn" has a definitive separation to it.
Idk just say all the combos you like in a loud angry voice and see which is easiest to say
I'd go with a 3-syllable name:
Nora Elizabeth
Nora Constance
Nora Jacqueline
Nora Gabrielle
Nora Jayne
I'm partial to the "y"...that's how my Mom spells it, so that's also how we spell N's middle name.

Excellent points to consider! Thank you!
I love Nora Miriam.

Nora Mae
Nora Jane
I'm partial to one syllable middle names.
Scarlett is Scarlett Maeve, but Maeve is pretty Irish, which I know is not everyone's taste. We also debated Scarlett Jane b/c Jane is my husband's grandmother's name.
Baby Name Genie (http://www.babynamegenie.com/baby-middle-names/) spit these out, but play around with it, maybe you'll find something you love. Then you can put in your actual last name instead of Heldbun, which is what I was using.
Nora Danielle
Nora Hailey
Nora Madison
Nora Megan
But Beth's not a real name!
I like more than one syllable for Nora.
Nora Elizabeth
Nora Emily
Nora Miriam
Nora Catherine
For some reason, some of these one syllable names are not doing it for me. Like they're making me sing, "Goodbye, Norma Jean," in my head.
If our last name didn't end in an A, I'd be pushing for Nora.
