Although
Calla is pretty, having a gardener for a mum has done certain things to my brain, one of which is that whenever I hear '
Calla', I have to add 'lily' on. Just one of those weird things!
Clara, on the other hand, feels lovely and calm and English (also reminds me of
Claire, one of my favourite names); I get the same feeling from it as I do from
Beth. It also reminds me of the girl in '
Heidi' who
Heidi teaches to walk again.
ETA: to clarify after reading another post regarding prn, I would only prn
Clara 'KLAH-ra', as opposed to KLAIR-uh, which I don't like at all, despite sounding more like
Claire. If you're pronounching it as the latter, then I like
Calla better.
