[Opinions] Cara or Clara
Pronounced Care-Uh and Claire-Uh.

Clara - I love how timeless it is as well as sounding good on a young or older girl.
Clara
It just has more substance. I'm the same way with Clarissa vs. Carissa.

Neither really thrills me. I don't like the "care" in Cara prn CARE-uh - I wouldn't want the name myself, because of that. So I'll give this fight to Clara, even though Clara seems prissy and leaves me cold.
I prefer Cara pronounced CAR-uh, and the name Claire. If it were between those two, I'd have an even harder decision... probably would go with Claire, for a daughter, because it's more current, and take Cara "CAR-uh" for myself.

Clara. Cara is nice enough, but I like Clara more.
Cara, hands-down. Actually I prefer Kara but same difference. Clara is frumpy and dowdy.
They're pronounced car-uh and khlar-uh where I live. I find Clara quite harsh sounding and hard to say, but I don't like Cara either.
I prefer Kara pronounced as car-rub
Not how I say or like either, but Claire-uh at least doesn’t sound like ‘carer’ when I say it.
Clara.
Cara is a bit too rough sounding for me.

I never thought I'd say this, but I prefer Cara. I don't love it, but Clara feels so unwieldy to me. If it were between Claire and Cara, I'd choose Claire without a second thought.
Do you like Calla? Seems like you might if you like these two.

I think Clara is much nicer.
Clara. I knew several Caras growing up so it feels dated to me.
I could never get either by of those pronounciations to work where I live (UK).
Of the two sounds (pronounced how you like) I prefer Cara, but both are pretty.

Cara is better
