Nicknames for either Honora or Nora include 'Norie', and 'Nunnie'. In a message dated 4/27/2010 11:36:43 A.M. Eastern Daylight Time, KarinJoyce@rcn.com writes: I have only known Honor as Nora and yes it is also written as Honora and Honorah. It is a Latin name and most names in the church records of Ireland were written in Latin even if they used the English version in life. I was allowed to view the church books in my mother's village years ago and all the names were in Latin. It was a fun transcription challenge. If you google - Honor as a name - it's variants say Nora.
