There is no universal correct pronunciation. Depends on where you from on and your preferences.

I would say

/ɑ/ as in car:

Aaron (don't like it pronounced like Erin)
Cara
Kara
Sarah and Clara if outside English-speaking countries
Tara
Ariana

/æ/ as in cat:

Carolyn
Mary
Darren
Karen

/ɛər/ as in air:

Sarah and Clara (in English)
Cary
Gary
Barry
