Rora Origin and Meaning

The name Rora is a girl's name.

Rora is a concise, feminine name with multiple potential origins. It may be a shortened form of Aurora, the Roman goddess of dawn, or derive from the Scottish Gaelic word for "seashore." In some contexts, it could be related to the Latin "ros" meaning "dew." Rora has remained quite rare throughout recorded naming history, never reaching widespread popularity in English-speaking countries. The name's brevity gives it a modern, minimalist appeal, while its soft sounds create a gentle impression. The dual-syllable structure with repeating 'r' sounds gives Rora a rhythmic, almost musical quality. Its uncommonness makes it attractive to parents seeking a distinctive name that's straightforward to spell and pronounce.
