Nodra is an uncommon but distinctive female given name of Welsh origin. It is derived from the ancient Welsh word "noddfa", which translates to "shelter" or "refuge". This name has a profound and meaningful association with providing protection and sanctuary, making it quite unique among other names of Welsh descent. Nodra is not typically associated with any particular saint or historical figure, further adding to its distinctive character. The name consists of three syllables, /ˈnoːdra/, and follows the typical Welsh naming pattern of having a strong stress on the first syllable. Although it may not be widely recognized, Nodra carries a profound and meaningful significance rooted in its Welsh linguistic heritage.
There were six babies named Nodra born in 1939, making it an uncommon but notable choice for that year with no other occurrences recorded since then.
