Do you pronounce the 1st syllable of
Caroline as CAHR, too? I've usually heard it said as KEHR which isn't even listed on BtN.
I've heard Americans say
Cara and
Tara with both pronunciations.
There's also
Clarissa,
Marissa,
Larissa. I would say kla-riss-uh, which is I guess could be why
Clara as CLAYR-uh feels awkward to me.
