Kora

Maori, English, Greek

"maiden"

Kora Origin and Meaning

The name Kora is a girl's name meaning "maiden".

As the softer-looking Cora of Downton Abbey fame charted highly in the US and the UK, some parents were looking for a way to make this name a little less common, a bit more trendy or far more Germanic by using a "K". We prefer the C version, but Kora is still an elegant name.
