Meaning & background
(noo-RAN / NOO-ran): Arabic-derived usage connected to light or radiance. Feels modern and international. Stateside, it first appears in 2000. It now sits outside the national top 1,000, which keeps it uncommon. Roughly 27 people have been given the name to date — a true rarity.
