History & Origin
Veora is a name of the early twentieth century, most likely coined by joining a Ve- opening to the popular -ora ending of Nora, Dora, and Cora. We treat it honestly as a period coinage with no single fixed root, though a loose tie to Latin ver, 'true,' is sometimes suggested. Its charm was its soft, old-fashioned sound.
Veora was never common, reaching only about fourteen girls a year around 1925 before fading by mid-century. A girl named Veora then would be a great-grandmother today, and the name reads now as a genuine antique from the Nora-and-Cora era rather than a current revival.
