We have settled on using Nora as a first name for sure. For middle names, so far I like, Clementine, Ruby, Audrey and Olivia. My husband really hates Clementine, his pick to add to the list is Celeste. Our last name is one syllable, starting and ending with S. Thoughts on these names? Names with a similar feel I might be overlooking?
Re: Middle name for Nora?
Caroline is similar in length and sound to Clementine.
Nora Caroline?
Sorry, but I am either not a fan of how the name flows with Nora or I don't like the name.
Other suggestions:
Elise, Estelle, Abigail, Camille
Nora Kate
Nora Grace
Nora Jane

For starters, kudos on choosing such an awesome name (see sig)
I think the names that end in "A" don't flow well. Clementine is out IMO, if your DH isn't on board.
My favorite of your choices would be Nora Audrey, followed by Nora Ruby.

Other ideas...
Nora Penelope
Nora Scarlett
Nora Charlotte
Nora Louise
Nora Felicity
Nora Claire
Nora Faith
Nora Paige
I agree that short mn would sound good, but I don't know with the short last name.
Your little Nora is so cute! You are right about the "A" names, hubs said the same thing and I kind of ignored him, it sometimes takes another opinion to make it sink in. I think Nora Audrey is the current front runner for both of us now.
Thanks for all the input ladies!
My niece is named Nora, and her middle name is Deanne. I like your names, but I think Nora Ruby is a little R-heavy; here are a few more I thought of:
Nora Cosette
Nora Blythe
Nora Marian
Nora Astrid
Nora Edith
Nora Juliette
Nora Kate
Nora Irene
Nora Evelyn
