Help[Opinions] Re: Clara
in reply to a message by Perrine
I love Clara - I also fell in love with it via The Nutcracker, I was waaay into that as a kid. I thought Clara (the character) was so wonderful.
It's a classic name with a sort of homey Victorian feel to it, which seems to be very en vogue for girl's names right now. Look at the steady rise of Cora, Alice, Eleanor, Norah, Amelia, Lucy, etc. I would expect it to keep steadily rising. I wouldn't be surprised it if got into the Top 50 in the next few years, unless there's a big shift in name fashion. It's just got the right bone structure to it.
I prefer Clara. Klara is cool and very edgy, but doesn't have the same warm heart centre that Clara has. Klara is rather cold and steely, like a knife edge. Claire is nice but seems a bit more humdrum. Clara has presence to it, a depth. Claire is more simple where Clara seems complex. Clare has more solidity to it than Claire, more seriousness that draws me in.
Clara and Clare are my faves :)
