I love Norah, but I think I prefer it without the h. I am generally of the opinion to use a mn that has some significance. In this case, I think I like the flow of Norah Madeline better.
I hear Henry all the time so I would go with Nolan. However, if you ever have a girl and a boy I don't think Norah and Nolan would be a good sibset...way too matchy.
Love Norah/Nora! I think I prefer Madeline with it, because it avoids the two "a" sounds right next to each other in Norah Anne.
Henry for sure. Nolan is fine, but I've just never really liked it for some reason. And if you're wanting to use whichever name you don't use this time for the next child, Norah and Nolan are too matchy. Norah and Henry would be a great sibset!

We are impatiently awaiting the day we can say goodbye to his girlfriend Ivy for good.

All of this. But I prefer Nora without the h.

I like Nora with no H - but just to warn you, supposedly the next big "trend" is names that end in A: Nora, Cora, etc. Wouldn't be a huge deal to me now (it will probably affect babies born a few years from now more than 2013 babies) but an interesting little factoid .

the first ones for both
Norah Anne and Nolan Roger
Norah Madeline! We spell DD's name with an H too.
I love Nolan but ditto pp's; too matchy with Norah. Henry is a great name, just very popular right now.

Norah Madeline is beautiful! I also love Henry Roger, sounds very classic.
