How would you spell this name?

I've been liking the the name Nora but I can't decide if the best spelling is Nora or Norah. Is there technically a correct spelling or are they both correct?[Poll]

    I prefer Norah when it's a standalone name and Nora if it's a nn for Eleanor (or another name).

    They are both correct.It is like Sara/Sarah.

    I much prefer Nora, no H.

    Funny enough, I prefer Sarah to Sara.

    Was about to say the same thing.

    I like Norah.  It might be because the first time I saw the name was Norah Jones.

    I like longer feminine names so I would probably pick Norah.

    I voted for Nora.

    Not to confuse you but I just wanted to add that I went to school with a Naura, pronounced the same as Nora(h) so I have always liked that spelling as well.  I don't know if it is a legitimate alternative spelling but just throwing it out there.
