About the name Nur Norhayati

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