Leor is an Israeli given name and less commonly a family name, pronounced [lee-or]. English spellings vary (common variations include Leeor and Lior), the Hebrew spelling is 'ליאור' (lamed-yud-aleph-vav-resh).
Leor is a unisex name. Leora is a specifically female version. Orlee is a variation on the same root. These are all common names in Israel.
The literal translation is “to me light". The root "or" means "light", the prefix "lee" is formed of "le" meaning "to" and "ee" meaning "me". A more natural translation is the imperative "[shine] light to me" or even "light me up".
