Menorah

The menorah is a widely recognizable and symbolic piece of Judaica. The word refers to any Judaic candelabra but is commonly associated with the special nine-branch candelabra used during Hanukkah. While not a traditional Jewish baby name, we're guessing that the parents who give this name to their daughters do so in honor of the Hanukkah holiday. The -norah suffix (and nickname possibility) give it a name-like feel.

Menorah was first recorded as a baby name in 2020 when it was given to five baby girls.

Pronounced muh-NOR-uh.

As of October 2026, Menorah ranked #11579 in US births in 2025 SSA.
