I've never heard
Mara pronounced any other way other than MAHR-a and
Maura only as MOR-a. I do however know a woman named
Moira that pronounces her name as MOR-a rather than MOY-ra
I do like both
Mara &
Maura and think that both are very pretty. The only thing I dislike about
Mara is that it means "Bitter".
I didn't know that you were TTC, congratulations Jacks! : )
