Oppose, per ngrams and per Google News (Ncora and Ncorha) which shows that Ncora is the WP:COMMONNAME, with Ncorha showing almost no use. BilledMammal (talk) 02:04, 7 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

In both cases the results showed recent news stories. Note that some caution is required with searches as searching for "Ncora" produces some results for "Ancora".-- Toddy1 (talk) 15:32, 8 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
