Sonora is a placename that could become a very symbolic first name for your little one. Perhaps you want to pay homage to your heritage or memorialize a place that holds happy memories or significance for you. Sonora is a northwestern Mexican state that borders Arizona, New Mexico, and California. It means "resounding" or “sonorous” and is a Mexican moniker for baby girls with a lovely, soothing quality. Names like Nora and Hanorah have similar-sounding qualities, but we think there's something truly unique and lyrical about Sonora!
