I don't like it. I like a lot of two-syllable -a names, but Calla ... too close to being callous, perhaps? I think it's the flower, though I love arum lilies - they grow wild where I live, and flower joyously in winter. And my very dear Carolyn friend has been known as Cal since she was a toddler and it was her best attempt at her actual name. So, I don't know why Calla lacks appeal but it certainly does.
