Help[Opinions] Nuria
I have been watching a Spanish television program with a character named Nuria in it, and it is really growing on me. What do you think of Nuria? What would you pair it with?
Nuria is pronounced noo-REE-ah

Weird, I've always heard it pronounced with the emphasis on the first syllable.
I think it's a beautiful name. In an English-speaking culture, I think getting called "Nurry-uh" might be kind of a bummer.

It's not my style. Reminds me a little of Narnia... not sure why! Maybe the beginning and ending letters and the amount of syllables.

It's really pretty! But also sounds like a skincare line.

I think its pretty, but I tend to like names that have a -ia ending. I think it has a great nickname as well, Noor. The meaning of the name is lacking, though. I'm going to suggest fully Spanish, Catalan, Galician, Portuguese combos.

Neither my partner or I are Spanish so if I did use Nuria I don't think I'd use a Spanish middle name. Nuria Belen and Nuria Luz are beautiful though.
Noor is one of my favourite names, but I'd be hesitant to put it on my list because I think it'd be very confusing for my hypothetical child, my boyfriend regularly has people come up and speak to him in Persian (He's Indian) I imagine having a Persian name (Nour is very common with our Iranian population) would compound that issue.

I guess it is appealing as a Spanish name. If it were/became an English usage I think the similarity to medical terms describing urination would spoil it for me (anuria, penuria) as well as the similarity to nutria (a semiaquatic rat that infests wetlands and is an invasive species where I live).
