Call for opinions: word for "now"

Hi all,

In creating the words for "now," I've generated the following:

(well now! then in that case, etc.) = alora < ad illa hora
(right now) = manutenendo < manu + tenendo
(at present, nowadays) = simera < Greek

I'm also keen to give a shorter option to manutenendo; I've jammed
together demonstratives and arrived at the following options: istora,
ecilora, ipsora... the etymologies should be pretty transparent.  I'm
leaning towards ipsora... I don't know, it just sounds pretty. :)

Any opinions?

Cheers,
Eamon
