About the name Nur Noraini

Nur Noraini is built from Nur, an Arabic element meaning 'light' that is commonly placed before a girl's name, and Noraini. Noraini is itself a combination of nur and 'ayn, meaning 'light of the eye'. Because Noraini already contains the nur element (written nor), this combination repeats the light element. Nur is also written Nor or Noor in Malaysian spelling.
