Help[Opinions] Norie
I was randomly browsing name forums when I came across Norie as a variant of one of my top favorites, Nora. Apparently it's gender neutral, though I can only see it on a girl. I must say I haven't seen a name so awesome to me in ages. I find it dreamy, tender and down-to-earth.
What do you think?
And, have you ever had a similar experience with a name?

Check my PNL, yo!

I guess it would be a sweet nickname for Nora (which is a sweet name) but not as a full name

It's a cute nickname for a girl. I mostly associate it with Nori, one of the dwarves from The Hobbit, though.

Norie on the site is listed as Japanese.

I always thought Norie was Japanese. It's related to Nori - it's not the same as the English name Norie. (It's pronounced with three syllables in Japanese.)
I don't really like the English name Norie (which I've seen more often spelled Norrie). It sounds like a nickname. I guess it could work for something longer like Noreen, Honora, or Lenora (considering Nora is technically a short form of names ending in -nora).

To be honest I first think of Kanye West and his daughter with a Kardashian who is named North nn Nori. I'm not into celebrity news at all but I still know this so I think many people will associate Nori or Norie with their daughter.
It is a very cute name that might work better as a nickname than a full name. I like Nora and especially Eleonora nn Nori. Noreen would be another possibility. Or even Eleanor which is lovely.

It's cute. I like it. Like you, I can only see it on a girl.

As somebody who thinks Nora is homely and dowdy, I find Norie homely, dowdy and babyish. Like Mikey or Becca or Timmy or Missy; a childish nickname that never grows up.

Okay it's a name, calm down...

Thats the nickname of North West, except its spelled Nori. For that reason, I dislike it. :P
