Every new parent knows that a baby lights up life with love and joy. Lenora is a feminine name of English, French, and Greek origins and acts as a spin on the classic name Eleanor. It translates to "the other Aenor," and can connect baby to a name that's steeped with history—think Eleanor of Aquitaine. Lenora has also been considered a spin on the Greek name Helen, which means "light" or "torch," is a fitting given name for a luminous baby girl. Lenora is of Greek origin and also means "compassion," which is a lovely sentiment when considering how bright life feels when people are kind to one another.
