How to Say “Cora” in Italian

By Mollie Kristina • Updated October 4, 2026

Cora

Cora is the Italian form of the female given name Cora.

Cora is used as a female given name.

Did you know?

While Cora is a name, the word cora does not exist as a common noun in modern Italian, making it a word that functions exclusively as a proper noun.
Unlike names like Maria or Giulia, Cora is almost never used as a 'nome di battesimo' in traditional Catholic family naming patterns in Italy.
In the context of Italian classical studies, the name is a direct nod to the Greek 'Kore', which was an epithet for Persephone.

Examples in context

Ciao Cora! Quanto tempo! Mi mancavi tanto!
Hi Cora! Long time no see! I missed you so much!
Si chiama Cora.
Her name is Cora.
Ho incontrato Cora ieri.
I met Cora yesterday.
Cora è una brava ragazza.
Cora is a good girl.

Ciao! I'm Mollie, in love with Italian culture and language. Aside from my linguistic explorations, I'm an aficionado of Italian cuisine, and a good 'bicchiere di vino' never goes amiss in my company. I find joy and inspiration in nature; whether it's marveling at the colors of 'autunno' or observing a sled's track in snow. I'm excited to share my knowledge with you, while I cultivate my understanding deeper. Spero vi piaccia!
