I like Claire a lot. It's simple & has a nice meaning. When I think of the name Claire, I think of Kirsten Dunst's character in Elizabethtown.

It's a little plain, but there's nothing wrong with it. You could do a hell of a lot worse, so you can't go wrong with Claire!

I knew a Claire once. She was the lead role in Pirates of Pinzance, Beauty and the Beast, and Little Women. She was a beautiful girl and super nice. She was also very outgoing and good at everything she did. When I hear Claire, that's what I think of.

I think Claire is a nice name, but I have some not so great associations with it. They weren't terrible, but just enough to make me not like the name. Essentially, it was just this really annoying girl in elementary school who wanted to be my best friend, even though I honestly didn't like her that much. Therefore, I associate Claire with a wannabe lol. Claire Julianne is the first combo that came to mind for me.

Well, since you asked "What are some things you'd associate with a girl named Claire?", I'll tell you. The name Claire has been totally ruined for my sisters and me, because one of my sisters had a friend in high school named Claire. This poor girl was cursed with the homeliest face you can imagine. She was just so ugly. She wasn't overweight or anything like that. She always tried to do her hair in a pretty fashion. But her face...the poor girl.
But it wasn't just that. We realized that no one chooses their face, and wouldn't have held that against her. She was also just...weird. Like every year, she'd choose a female teacher to crush on and obsess over. It was just...weird. She'd spy on the teacher, sort of, if she could watch the teacher going on about her business through a window, she'd do that. One year, it was the school nurse she obsessed over, and the nurse finally told her that it was unhealthy and she should try harder to find friends her own age, and do you know two or three years later Claire was still talking about that! Just..eww. The only reason my sister was friends with her was that she really just attached herself to my sister, and my sister felt sorry for her. Also, she liked my sister so much, and my sister says that when someone likes you that much, it's hard not to like them back at least a little.
But yeah, my sisters and I have mentioned that she totally ruined the name Claire for us.
On the other hand, I had a friend who had an utterly adorable little girl named Claire. So that rehabilitated it a little in my eyes. Still, I could never use it.

Claire is one of my absolute favourite names - it brings to mind someone who's honest, hard-working, loyal and loving. I love this spelling, and the fact that it means 'bright' or 'light' in French.
I have Claire as an mn with Matilda in my combo list, but here are some with Claire as the fn:
Claire Cassandra
Claire Francesca
Claire Eloise
Claire Emmeline
Claire Josephine
Claire Rosetta
Claire Natalia
Claire Matilda
