It like Mara the best, it's the least likely to be mispronounced too. Also Mara Wilson is an amazing person :)

All three are good, but I prefer Moira.

Moira, just because I enjoy saying it more than the others.Mara is okay, though; I'd prefer that to Maura.

I prefer Mara. Maura sounds glum to me, and I've always found Moira to be difficult to say, and for that reason, a headache. Nothing objectionable about Mara.

I like Maura best.

I guess Moira. I'm not a huge fan of either of them but I like Moira's meaning (fate) more than that of Mara (bitter). I dislike Maura in general, just the way it looks and sounds. Moira makes me think of Peter Pan which I love so that is nice.

Hi felicis !!!Maura 4/10 I dislike it. Maybe for its sound (the u). It is a dated name here (1960s-70s). I much prefer Morena (same meaning).Mara 6/10 old-favourite of mine. But as I love Tamara too so Mara seems incomplete to me.Moira 9/10 I really like this name thanks to Classic Myths and Moira Orfei.
The sound is very fascinating imo.

I dislike Maura, and also Maureen.
I don't mind Mara, but I'd never use it because I like so many names so much better
I don't know why I don't like Moira more than I do, but it always seems heavy to me. I've liked all the Moira people I've known, but it doesn't help.
