I say MAH-ra and I think it's a really beautiful name. I had a friend named this all through middle and high school, and it was certainly distinctive at the time and the name itself was near its peak popularity in the US with my birth year.

Amara is about equally popular now, as Mara was then, and it might not be quite so distinctive from that, but it doesn't seem like too many rhyming names are floating around the tops of the charts.
