Norah Elizabeth Lee, the newest addition to the Independent’s rapidly growing team of kids, was born to the Marketing Director Emily Lee on March 23. That happens to be her mom’s birthday as well, so the happy family can look forward to many years of double celebrations. Emily answered a few of our questions about her firstborn.
How did you decide on the name Norah? Were there other contenders? My husband and I listened to a lot of Norah Jones during 2020 and 2021, especially on weekend mornings while making breakfast. We loved how her music would set the tone for our day. When we were brainstorming names, I suggested Norah. We had a few other contenders, but ultimately we both kept coming back to Norah. It just felt right to us.
Does Norah have any nicknames? We call her Mummies and Miss Norah the most.
