Alura is in Origin.

Alura is a modern given name of English-language use, generally viewed as a creative elaboration on Laura (from Latin laurus, “laurel”) or as a variant of Allura shaped by the English word allure. Because of these paths, it is interpreted either as “laurel-crowned” - a symbol of victory and honor - or as “alluring, charming.” Its open vowels and liquid consonants align it with contemporary favorites like Alora and Elora.

As a personal name, Alura appears rarely before the late 20th century and remains uncommon, though it has gained modest visibility in the 2000s–2010s through pop-culture use (e.g., DC Comics character Alura; the related spelling Allura in animation). Documented variants include Allura, Alaura, and Elura; related names include Alora, Elora, and Laura. Spelling fluidity is typical for such modern coinages, and parents often choose Alura for its sleek sound and blended classical-and-modern associations.
